On my visit to Carneys Point, New Jersey earlier this month, I exposed a few select frames of Kodak Tri-X using my Canon EOS-3 with 40mm pancake lens.<\/p>\n

Previously, I posted a selection of the digital color photos that featured Conrail Shared Assets freight CA11. See: Bright Day on the Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines. https:\/\/wp.me\/p2BVuC-59B<\/p>\n

I processed the film yesterday (Monday, 27 November 2017) using my two-stage development recipe:<\/p>\n

By starting with \u2018presoak\u2019 solution that features a very weak developer, I allow for increased development in the shadow areas. My primary developer for this roll was Kodak D-76 stock solution diluted 1-1 with water.<\/p>\n

While I intentionally \u00a0under processed the film to avoid excessive highlight density, following stop bath, fixing baths, and rinse, I then soaked the negatives in selenium toner (mixed 1 to 9 )for 8 minutes to boost highlights to my desired ideal.<\/p>\n

The results are these broad-toned monochromatic images with delicate silvery highlights.<\/p>\n

A side effect of this process is the exceptionally archival quality of selenium toned original negatives that without any expensive storage conditions should long outlive my digital photos.<\/p>\n
