From the darkroom pt 2


Another fixed print from the darkroom and here's how it goes. For comparision you can check the crappy negative scan from here.

1. Base exposure to the whole picture f22, multigrade filter 5 for 8 seconds.
2. Extra contrast for the rocks, filter 5 for 3 seconds.
3. Details for the rocks and river, filter 00 for 3 seconds.
4. Burning the foundation of the bridge through a small hole, it was allmost white. Filter 00 for 2 seconds.
5. Bringing out rest of the details of the river, filter 00 for about 3 seconds.
6. Making the sky visible, filter 00 for 11 seconds.
7. Burning the border line of forest and sky, filter 00 about 5 seconds.

Notes from the earlier print made this one rather easy so far, though im not happy with the skies yet. Filter 00 probably isnt the right choice for the clouds.

Herrajjestas, että sä jaksat! Mä en taitais taipua tollaiseen väkertämiseen. Hatunnoston arvoista kuitenkin!
