I got a box of new-to-me paper just before Christmas - Fomabrom 112 fibre, matt finish. I had read it is lith-able, so I thought I'd dive straight in and see what happens when it is dunked in some Moersch Easylith developer at around 30 degrees. This happened:

Yup, I know - a right mess! A nice mess, though. Not exactly what I thought might happen - much colder than other Foma papers I've developed in lith. Closer to Slavich papers in how cold it came out. Interesting, for sure.
So what it is of? Not telling just yet - there are clues if you look close enough and ignore all the cotton wool. I will print a 'normal' version of this neg to compare, and then all will be revealed.
Happy New Year!
Christmas market? That's an interesting effect and might be used to create some interesting art depending on the photo.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year. I hope we both get some photography done. Last year wasn't great for me.
Close!
DeleteYes I think the paper has potential if I can manage to shoot anything decent. Like you I had a poor 2025 photography-wise.
Let’s aim for a better year in 2026, Marcus!
