Excellent kallitypes! They make me jealous! Is this a ready-made kallitypes kit? Digital negatives or the original ones?

[RPippin]

Original negatives, all the chemistry was mixed in the darkroom. Not a difficult process to mix chemistry for. Let me know if you need formulas.

Three images from the studio of Manupropria in Staunton Virginia. The two train station shots were done on expired (2002) TMax developed in PMK Pyro. All printed on Arches Platine with Kallitype. Scanned but unedited.Attachment 139300Attachment 139301Attachment 139302

Nice indeed! What developer and/or toner did you use?

Nice, thanks! I put any kallitype experiments on hold due to the outrageous cost of ferric oxalate here in Europe. I've decided to stick to cyanotype, Van Dyke Brown and carbon transfer for now.

Thanks, Andreios. The developer is from Bostick and Sullivan, the black developer, and no toning. These are straight scans as well, so what you see is pretty much correct in tones. Sorry to hear about the cost of Ferric Oxalate being so expensive, it's not cheap here either, but ignore all the warnings about it having a short shelf life. The FO I'm using here was mixed last December and it's still good. Not refrigerated either. I'll send you a PM with the formulas if you think you might want to try it out.

I'd be interested in the black dev. formula.. I usually develop my kallitypes in Sodium Citrate - which makes results reddish brown, but one or two black dev formulas that i have tried somehow increased the graininess - nice sometimes, but not always..
And yes, FO is expensive, but much less than Pd or Pt, so I just accept it and print..

Andreios, I'll get the formula from the darkroom next time I'm down there and send it to you.

Hendrik, long time! Another great print. New series?

[Erik Larsen]

That's wonderful Hendrick! My compliments
