Thanks, I am doing a wet print tomorrow, it will be hard to make the snow look like snow and not sand. I think the scan should be a bit lighter too.
 
Good luck with the print. I especially like the s-shaped wavy shadows in the mid-upper section - make sure they show on the print as just barely perceptible when the print is wet (if you have to consider dry-down).
 
Success, although printing them wet was not easy. I wanted to lighten the print up a bit, but keep those figure S marks there. I used Ilford MG IV Pearl (easy to work with, but nothing great). Twenty five second exposure, # 4 1/2 filter, and burned the top about 5 seconds longer. Took several tests shots, but I got what I wanted, a slightly lighter photo, but still shows the details. Wish I could get a good scan so I could post it.Thanks again for the comments. Wayne
