AD5803 - Practitioner research: Alexey Titarenko

Alexey Titarenko has always been one of my favourite photographer and I really admire his black and white original aesthetic. His monochrome printing skills are incredible and I have found this video in which from min.6.12 he illustrates some of his procedures. In particular, he shows the silver reducer process, the bleaching, and the sepia toner.

The aesthetic he achieves on the final prints is extremely artistic, by using toning effects he adds soft colored shades to his nuanced palette of grays.
