   ...very arty feel to this one, you've managed to keep a lot of the colour in this. Is this scan of the print before you "fixed" it?

   @jonbrown13
   I'm not quite sure whether I understand your question, but I try to answer anyway…:
   There is no fixing of the paper, just exposure and scanning. Nothing else. That is one of the amazing things with doing solargraphs: You never now how it turns out. Sometimes the colors are more or less uniform, sometimes they are like a rainbow.

   So this is Black and white photographic paper exposed through a pinhole device - then you scan it as soon as it is removed from the device....? But if you don't fix it the image on the paper it will be fogged in a matter of time....Surely?

   Normally sunprints are fixed with a weak sodium thiosulphate solution to keep the image, although this looses some of the wilder colouration on the paper. I was wondering if you'd found a way of keeping those colours in the original print

   Although not a solargraph, here's one of my sunprints (fixed with thio and toned with selenium) www.flickr.com/photos/jonbrown/4710714309/

    Jon, I know what you mean. I've done sun prints and solargraphs. But for some reason the slightest sniff of thio and the solargraph image is gone. As far as I'm aware there is no way of fixing the image.

    @Jon
    Yep. Already by the scanning procedure the original is lost…
    You need to be very careful not to screw up the picture before.

    @Mark
    Thanks for support!

    Meravigliosa. Quell'edificio nell'inquadratura che interrompe la scia del sole, la rende ancora più suggestiva e speciale.
