Film Photography With Ray Nelson
Darkroom Skills – Introduction to Film Photography

You will learn to make 8x10 black & white photographs on silver gelatin photographic papers in a traditional “wet” darkroom. You will mix photographic chemistry, lay out your processing steps, expose photographic paper, and create traditional black & white photos. You will first make a “contact sheet” to better view your negatives, and then use the contact sheet to select a negative suitable for printing. You may as well know up front. Not every negative is a masterpiece; some print better or more easily than others. Some negatives will never make a photograph. Some will, but that’s for you to decide.
You will use graded & variable contrast papers and expose and develop your photograph. You will learn a systematic way to arrive at your preferred exposure. You will evaluate your work to refine and improve results. You will learn to “dodge & burn”, use filters, paper flashing, and other techniques to affect your photograph. You will learn bleach & redevelopment and toning techniques to further refine your prints and improve their archival stability. You will leave with quality black & white prints suitable for framing.
