Toning Kallitype - a visual depiction

[Debanjan]

Of late I have been multi toning Kallitype prints and enjoying the colour shifts and the final outcome. I follow the process as listed below -
1. Gold tome after Sodium Citrate development - I am using Moersch MT 10 toner and I reuse + replenish a certain working volume ~ 30 ml for a 8"x10" print
2. Fix after tonig
3. Black Salt (Kala Namak / Sulphur rich salt) toning
3. Selenium toning
4. Another round of Gold toning for a brief period

Attached are a set of images wherein I have tried to capture the transitions. Hope this helps all those who want to try out these toning techniques

Interesting... I assume you are clearing the print after development first? Thank you for sharing, Deb.
