Halo - Ing Inks


Jan2016

Recommended Posts

With special thanks to inkstainedruth!

 

Never had a good description for it but she helped me out, so time for another characteristic of ink beside sheen, shade and feathering....

 

Halo-ing

 

that crisp edge shading on strokes which are darker than the rest of the line

 

It is a subjective thing, but what I see is that most inks with halo-ing can be recognized at the swaps, and in the chromo at the top most of them have a "sharp" cut off, or a very high contrasting color.

 

Post your favorite halo-ing inks here!

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film.

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
