(And yes, I know that one of
Eugene Smith's iconic images was produced by sandwiching two negatives;
I also know that today he'd be instantly fired for doing that. ;-))

Thanks for your answer, B.D.
But if I've decided anything it is only that I want to produce images using
a camera, wether it is with a single image or with several.
Also, I don't see why darkroom toning would be different to PS duotoning.
I've done both with pretty much the same goal and results.
Finally, and out of curiosity, why would Smith be fired today? For twisting
the truth? IMO THE truth doesn't exist anymore, if it ever has, that is.

Kind regards,
Philippe
