I remember, long time ago(lol), when I was developing argentic photos, this effect was obtained using a Selenium toner

Oh yes, I remember playing with those toners in the dark room (some 20 years ago ;-)... But they didn't come out as nicely balanced as this one, though! Beautiful tones, and another excellent capture, Michel!

Good old Isaac Asimov, I remember his stories. One of them was on the Moon which is related to selenium, the Greek word for moon. Fantastic work, Michel! :)

Many splendid chemicals for film processing and fiber base paper printing are disappearing. Nice to see Ilford still hanging on as several companies last year closed shop. Wonderful toning. Thank you for sharing. Egmont

Great shot, however, personally - I enjoy the natural colors as they add so much to the costuming.

I love the Selenium toner effect! It works great with this image. Beautiful work Michel! Regarding Mars, Mercury and beyond... they are all just a thought away, in the world of TRV (Technical Remote Viewing), and the teachings of Wm. A. Tiller. Most inspirational! Have a fantastic weekend my friend.
