Same here. OK through the developer and fix then
some hue ensues; my testing with less than adequate
fix. No pink or close though. I've studio proofs from the
40s with still visible image which are very red-ish.
No fix at all likely.
A slight under fixing leaves a trace of silver evenly
distributed with in the emulsion. On short exposure to
light it is soon reduced to metallic; might be thought of
as a POP with highlight density through out.
Now about that ferrOcyanide. I don't agree. It's silver
salt is not very stable. In a nut shell, that ferrO form will
convert to ANY of the halides; usually the bromide when
sepia toning. IIRC it was Mr. Rudman who pointed out
that ANY of the halides or a mix can be used with
or after the use of ferricyanide.
Every salt of silver is soluble with the use of thiosulfate;
the iodide and sulfide being two of the very least soluble
salts. A silver image converted to silver ferrOcyanide
maintains it's integrity because of it's insolubility in
solutions lacking solvent action. Dan
