Toning Silver prints

I tried Selenium, Sepia (oh the smell) and Blue Toner. The process for the Blue Toner and Selenium are the easiest with no need for bleaching. The Selenium toner is the more toxic of the two. The Sepia toner requires bleaching first, the a wash and then the toner. It smells very strong and will linger long after the chemicals are discarded.
