Another shot from last Saturdays stroll by the Mississippi River. The tree line is the bank of the Mississippi. If you look to the far right of the tree line you can see the Minneapolis skyline.
Thanks for looking.

Thanks Marianne, the pepper started to show up but it does not bother me too much. I am having fun with this lith process however I will need to do a better job determining which print would be better with a somewhat normal process and which will be best for lith. It sure is great to have more options!

I like pepper fog. Understand your quandry..lith is perfect for many things, less so for many others. An even bigger problem for me is the range of results available via lith. Great print btw..
Nice work Steve... I like the pepper fog too. I know some don't... Actually this is real pepper fog, some folks assume the gritty blacks in many lith prints are a form of pepper fog... It's not Either way, you can control it with some addition of sodium sulphite on it's own, or a mix of sodium sulphite and potassium bromide I know photospeed has a kit for some of this
Great prints!
Can I ask you one question? What do you do with selenium toner after you use it? I'm not sure if it would be Ok to poor it into the drain?
Tvora, I personally do not discard my selenium very often, I filter it out into another bottle and replenish. You can do this for years is what I have been told.
When I do have to discard, I soak unwanted prints overnight so the prints soak up a majority of the heavy metals. I seriously have not had to discard selenium very many times in the last few years. Like I said, me & other folks replenish. You may want to go to the forum for more info on this subject. Absolutely do not dump your exhausted selenium down any drain.
