There are constant colour changes with a Salt print. All rather confusing, but we’re getting there! Here is an example of those changes, with a new digi neg.
There will be at least 2 more changes. After drying(darker) and after waxing (glossier, deeper blacks).
Salt Print, Calcium Chloride 2%, Citric Acid, Gelatin, 15% Silver Nitrate.
Photo is from the families series. The father in the photo would always greet me with a loud. MING AH LAH BAH!!! (Hello in. Burmese). Here he is in 2013 stripping wire and metal parts for money.
If you want to hear him. Check out the linked 2018 video. You can hear him say hello at the beginning if the vid.
