Some of you may know but as an early present Tim Rudman's re-print of "The Master Photographer's Toning Book" has landed at Silverprint and is ready to be shipped.
By all accounts it's a must have resource. When the firs print run finished and sold out copies were going 2nd hand on amazon for up to $1000.
I'm just about to order mine along with Robin Bell's "Silver Footprint" which whilst I was looking for reviews on stumbled across this nice little video about the man and the book.
In the same way that digital photographers hope for a photo which is worth spending money on getting it printed on a big canvas or something, I one day hope that I will have a negative worth sending to Robin for printing. Watch the man work, it's a bloody art-form of its own (and I'm glad to see I'm not the only person making thin negatives, but I suspect those in the film were meant to be).
