That's fantastic Sergei.

Sergei, the portrait is beautiful but could you tell me what abrasive toning is?
Wow, Sergei. Did you use a texture screen as well?

its the technique developed and perfected by William Mortensen to work out tonality quirks in photographs, similar to what dodge&burn is, but performed differently , using etching and abrasion.Originally Posted by Micheal Clark
thank you
Aye, i keep looking for new ones, but i have made about 5 ones that i keep coming back to. Wish i could buy Mortensen's ones, but alas - not a chance
Thanks Sergei, there is alot about Mortensen that I do not know, have to look into his techniques more.
Yes, Sergei, that is fantastic.

My books @ Blurb (only heavily outdated "Serene Landscape").
"Abrasion Tone" is covered in Mortensen's "Print Finishing", if I remember rightly.
