Re: [Digital BW] Re: MIS-FS vs MIS-FSN

I am not aware of side by side comparisons, but I will
give you my observations.

The FS prints looked way too greenish in tungsten
light.    However, they would warm up quite a bit if
left out in the open (sort of a yellowish brown). 
Since I strongly dislike the appearance of green
prints and I am not overly fond of blue prints
(Straight FSN from what I have read) I decided to mix
FSN with FS (60 - 40).  Thank you Martin.  

No more green prints in tungsten light.  As far as
warming with the new mixture, I don't know what will
happen since they have only been displayed for a few
weeks.

Paper and work flow:  EAM, German Etching, Photo Rag. 
All used with Jeff Randall's ingenious curves.
Sommerset Velvet Enhanced doesn't print well with
these inks in my experience.
