    Good tonality! Nice to see the highlights didn't get all blocked out

    third times the charm

    first two attempts at a salt print failed - this one is not perfect but much better, I am guessing it needs just a little more exposure to get some black into it

    since the house was built in 1830, a salt print seemed appropriate

    The summer solstice just passed, and I pulled the wooden box pinhole that I've had sitting in the window since the winter solstice down to scan the solargraph exposing inside it.

    Already replaced the camera, as well as a cylindrical paint can pinhole next to it, for 1 year exposures to be pulled on the 2022 summer solstice.

    That is cool - What paper are you using?
    The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

    Very cool--I'm starting to set up to do some kallitypes so I monitor this thread closely. (FWIW my next door neighbor here in the Knoxville was born in Copperhill in the 1920's--"Daddy" worked on the L&N--apparently getting out of that country on old Hwy. 68 wasn't for the faint of heart.)

    Ilford MGIV RC pearl, lately I've been using Arista EDU Ultra semi matte which seems to develop a deeper image quicker for non-pinhole "short exposure" solargraphs and really enjoying the results.
