I have spent two more days in my dim room (i.e. the basement) making platinum\/palladium (Pt\/Pd) prints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have the wood stove cranked up so the basement is a good place to spend a couple of very cold days. It was 6 deg F below zero when I got up this morning. The high today was 6 above zero. It is -2 deg F as I write this about 8:30 in the evening. Brrrr! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All of these are small “draft” prints (4×5 inch images on 5x7ish Lenox 100 paper). I will eventually make larger prints (6×7.5 inch images on 8×10 inch paper) of all or most of these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As with all alternative process prints, the scans are barely adequate facsimiles. One really needs to hold the actual object in ones hand to get the full effect.<\/p>\n\n\n
