Darkroom: Praha Nový Svět, Lith Print No. 5

Darkroom: Praha Nový Svět, Lith Print No. 5

Printed in a traditional wet darkroom using an alternative lith printing method. The method takes advantage of so called infectious development in a special diluted high contrast developer and introduces color, unpredictability, and uniqueness into black and white photographs. Results will significantly vary based on the paper used and many other factors.

The subject is Černínská Street in Nový svět, Prague, Czech Republic. This is Print No. 1 in the lith print study.
