I was printing 2 11x14 lith prints. I had them both in the developer at the same time, as I wanted them to match, and my lith skills haven't got to the point of repeatable results.
I had them back to back and was sloshing them, and then gently flipping them over and sloshing gently again. The 3rd or 4th time flipping them they slid right out of my gloved fingers and into the stop, many many minutes too early. Some bad words tinged the air.
Never had prints just escape from me like that! Hope I never do again.
I managed to keep a grip on the prints on my next try, so the session wasn't wasted, just a couple of sheets of paper.
Amazing how there is always a blooper waiting to happen that you'd never even considered!
