ADOX MCC 110 paper



 
I just finished a printing run in the dark room and used ADOX MCC 110 Premium Fiber Based paper for the first time and I am very impressed.  Great tonal range especially when using Photographers' Formulary Liquidol Paper Developer.   I was especially please by the weight of the paper and the surface.  Minimal curl and flattened well.  I have been printing for 30 years and this is probably the best paper I have used in that time.  The Freestyle advisory board member comments about the paper are more detailed and sum it up better than I can.  If you are still printing from negatives consider this the next time you restock your paper.  It produced a solid black and the tone came out very nuetral for me, which I like.   This looks like my new paper of choice.

Printing





Been too long but back in one of my most reverent places. Spent about four hours cleaning up outside toning sink & installing new fan - can't wait to get some paper in the trays. My darkroom is where I have my deepest focus on life. Also have the new Epson 4900 up and running so digital image prints coming as well. Exciting times, always feel more whole when making finished prints. Check back later to see available prints.
