I first read about alternative printing methods way back in '84 when I started photography, and was particularly fascinated with platinum/palladium printing. Years later, and with an 8x10 camera on the way, I'm keen to give these processes a try, but there's a catch! Australia seems to be without the chems! I've been able to track down Cyanotype kits from Vanbar in Melbourne (not too expensive either) but I haven't been able to find any leads on platinum/palladium kits.
Does anyone know if such a thing exists in this country? I've yet to look into the possibility of importing the kits from OS (import restrictions/safety/etc), but I would prefer to obtain the kit locally if possible.
Suggestions please! :)
