    3 fixer test for wet plate

    Today i made a test using three types of fixer for collodion.
    Amaloco, KCN and Hypo.
    I just wanted to know if it is worth the risk using KCN.
    if you are interested, just have a look.

    A good experiment.
    As far as I can see from the images, I won't bother with KCN.
