My dags have been contact prints from digital positives. I think I need to reduce contrast a bit more. That should get my highlights a little darker without making everything else TOO dark. The highlights on this one were kinda borderline “too light”. The darker parts of the dag took the gilding very nicely, turning a nice antiquey brown. The highlights just lightened up and lost what little definition they had. They kinda have that solarized look that I’ve seen on some plates, but not as extreme. There were also these little…snowflakes…that appeared within the light areas. I’ll see about getting it posted so everyone can see.
