Thanks Jon. :)
Although the blue in the print is a more subtly and darker blue than the bright and splashy Prussian blue that I expected and frankly don't care for, I didn't tone the print. The resulting blue, which the scan doesn't quite capture, may be the result of the length of exposure (30 minutes in the sun) and/or the addition of oxalic acid and potassium dichromate that I added to the sensitizing solution. I'm quite pleased with the result and don't see any reason to tone it.

My first ever photo using film, taken last week but a lot of reading of posts on this forum prior to that. I don't think it would have been possible for me to have even begun to get into large format photography without the wealth of knowledge in this forum.
