Ice boats race across Lake Winnebago Ice. An 8x10in salt print.

This print is an experiment with a new coating / sizing formula. I used powdered egg whites for the albumin instead of cracking a bunch of eggs. The powder is a bit less expensive (no wasted yolks) and a lot less work. The coating gives a really nice matte finish to the print, even though it is hard to see in the picture.

Residual egg yolks were a big problem back in the heyday of albumin based photography and prints. So the producers came up with a lot of nice recipes for using the egg yolks. Yolk Pound Cake, Lemon Curd, Vanilla Ice Cream and Creme Brulee

I will be making 8 more of this image and all of the prints will be for sale soon!
