kelseyj -

You will find that experimentation will yield your best results - what works
for one person may not be what another is seeking.

I would recommend that you start out with the standards, Kodak Dektol,
Indicator Stop Bath, and Rapid Fixer. If you are using RC paper, I would very
highly recommend that you tone it (with selenium - sepia and gold are other
alternatives) to ensure its permenance.
