Old Stone Shed

I discovered this scene about two weeks ago along the Tuscarora trail, which was originally built as a 252 mile relocation of the Appalachian Trail in PA, MD, WV, and VA. The trail was never used as fear of over development subsided.

The trail now is very rural and poorly maintained, at least in Pennsylvania. But the scenery along it unmatched.

Ilford MGIV in LPD 1:4 toned in Sepia
Wonderful tone and gradation. Without a sepia tone.
Which toner was used. Any trick to that pleasant
warm brown? Dan
 
Gorgeous, Brian! Love how sharp it is, the toning is really well done - and, it has really nice presence.

Dan, no special trick to the sepia tone. I used MGIV and bleached all but the blacks. I normally don't bleach more than this. I mix my own sepia toners. I added almost the max amount of sodium hydroxide (accelerator) that I usual use. I knew I wanted a nice brown but not a deep dark brown. I burnt the sky more than normal before toning knowing I would lose some of the tone. Then selenium Toned. Thanks for all the comments!
