silver paper for prints

Dew · Feb 10, 2004

im really digging this b&w film .. im wanting to explore different types of paper for print .. something silverish .... what do u recommend .. if u have a sample photo, that would be great

also, can this paper be printed in a "regular" photo printer?

agfa insignia is rich. you won't get a 'silver', per se, from any paper unless you do some post processing.

i own a set of chemicals that will turn either the shadows to silver or the highlights to silver (you can, of course, do it selectively as well). it's pretty ok for the right photo. sadly, the bottles no longer have labels. let me think where i got them....

...now i 'member.
