This was the primary image i presented at my Senior Thesis Review on historical photographic processes.
The original photograph i took using an 8" x 10" view camera with Kodak film, at a local cemetery. The thesis was on monumental tombs of the 1800's.
The print, known as the platinum palladium process (in this case, this is a palladium version) is a direct contact print (negative on the paper)
Exposure to direct UV was 30 minutes.
Chemical break down for paper:
Ferrous Oxylate Solution 1: 12 drops
Ferrous Oxylate Solution 2: 10 drops
Palladium II Solution 3: 24 drops
Tween 20: 5 drops
coated with a boar hair bristle brush soaked in distilled water on Arches Platine paper.
All-in-all this was a really time intensive and expensive photograph haha
Enjoy! Comment appreciated.

Looking at this close up on my computer now I can see just how cool it really is, and I somewhat envy you that for taking a picture with that process as while I do have experience developing my own film from a camera, I have never had the chance to do anything before like what you did to take this picture.
