Special Thanks to Shadowedsmile for teaching me the ways of the darkroom.

Wow, these all look really good.

Nicely done. Developing is fun. What's with the glows coming in from the sides?

Thanks, yes it is! The glows, yeah, I honestly don't know, maybe a bit of over exposure...next time I'll see if it still happens.

Personally, I find the developing part to be less fun than actually creating the prints (despite how frustrating it can be)...but it's still neat to do. Hopefully soon I'll get around to making a contact sheet from Marmora...but that'll have to wait until I finish the prints I have orders for.

I've never made my own print from a negative before. Maybe someday.

It's worth trying at least once. It's frustrating sometimes, and takes a lot more time than digital editing, but I still prefer printing in my darkroom over editing digitally. I find the hours and frustration and endless prints that it takes to get a really good print in the darkroom far more rewarding than some clicks on a computer. But that's just me, and definitely not the logical way to look at it Plus I can only do b/w.

Sweet Quarry! And the mill (?) reminds me of a neat place back in CO.

It's like a magical etch-a-sketch! I prefer to develop my own negs and then scan them in... but that's just me. Printing is nice and rewarding but such a PIA.

Thanks, it's actually an open pit mine. And the buildings are for the crusher.

Yes! These are scans from the negs, when I get my own place I'll be developing my own b/w film a lot more then just scanning.

Are these on 120 film, shot in a tlr? If so, did you change/load film in bright sunlight? That would explain the glow along the sides of only some of the images. Nice pics, I haven't been up there in a couple years. The fourth one is very good (other than the glow).
yep. |
