I laid down on the darkroom floor as I waited for prints to develop - I have no chair in the darkroom. This was my first lith session. Here's what I used. Kodalith Super RT developer 1 part A, 1 part B and 6 parts water. Ilford MG WT fiber paper. I had to really hit it with light to get a good lith effect, 4 stops over a normal exposure. Looks a bit dark, but I got the lith effect going. It took 20 minutes to develop. I have another version at 2 stops over - not so much lith effect, but lovely warm tones. I'm going to head the other version into a gold toner and see what happens. I like this stuff; perhaps I'm a large format photographer waiting to come of age. I seem to be running the other direction from the latest processes (i.e. digital). Thanks for inquiring.
