I've not had a lot of darkroom time, sadly enough. I did have some negatives scanned and I swear that my scanner hates the negatives. I shot a roll of Kentmere 100 out at a local (and HUGE, 280+ acre park) and the scanner saw them as washed out, hopeless cases.
I figured I was up to a challenge.
I DID use the blue/yellow filters to make a nice shade of green after reading the info sheet. I used grade 2 Oriental paper, pearl, RC. This one turned out a lot better than the one I made with NO filters, same exposure time, which was around 15 seconds and the lens was stopped to 5.6.
Yet again, I've had my husband run off with a photograph that I like. It's now going to be matted and framed on his wall at work. Pretty soon, I'm going to think that he's going to have an art gallery in his office - and we'll have a small showing there.
Anyway, thought I'd post this because, well...it's been awhile since I've been in the darkroom. I have a few sheets of negatives that need to be scanned and then to find the ones I want to print in the darkroom.
