Fresh out of - Sodium Sulfide, Thiourea, Polysulfide and Cuttlefish ...!

P1670220 - This is an attempt at a Sepia feel, rather than Sepia toning. The DMC G1 may have a Sepia selector, not found it yet, so this was an attempt at getting a SOOC Sepia feel to an image without using any presets.

Sepia toning is done in three stages. First the print is soaked in a potassium ferricyanide bleach to re-convert the metallic silver to silver halide. The print is washed to remove excess potassium ferricyanide then immersed into a bath of toner, which converts the silver halides to silver sulfide. Citation or perhaps closer to a Sepia Colour Sepia is a dark brown-grey color, named after the rich brown pigment derived from the ink sac of the common cuttlefish Sepia. Citation
Or it's back to the drawing board...:(

Just the 50 shots then, so this one worked :) All about the angle of the dangle and light reflecting on the lens but don't ask for the technical angles.
