Lith developed, gelatin silver prints,  

Image Sizes: 13" x 13" & 17" x 17".  

Ilford Multigrade IV paper,  

Kodak Kodalith Super RT developer,  

full strength (1 part stock A 1 part stock B), approximately 100 degrees F, no toner. I use Kodalith developer at full strength starting hot as mixed and I will usually print for hours. My negative exposure times are from 5 to 40 seconds in the enlarger. I slip the exposed print in the developer and continuously agitate for from 2 minutes to 10 minutes depending on the negative, snatch the print at the time I feel is visually correct for contrast and development. Immediately slip it in the stop bath (Kodak indicator) for around 15 to 30 seconds, drain and fix in Kodafix.
