Make your own darkroom prints, even without access to a darkroom. Makeshift
or dual-purpose spaces will work, if you follow these basics of
black-and-white developing techniques. Diagrams and specially-commissioned
photos simplify the use of developers, fixers, graduates, timers, and
thermometers. Guidance on using developing equipment covers enlargers,
lenses, trays, tanks, drums, and safelights. See how to process a negative
and turn out work prints, test strips, contacts, and proofs. The techniques
for making a final print include cropping, dodging, burning, preflashing,
soft focus, borders, vignetting, spotting, and retouching. Troubleshooting
sections point out all the potential pitfalls and how to avoid them, and
suggest rescue techniques for those times when things don't quite go
according to plan. Soon you will be able to create portraits and landscapes
that feature sepia toning, archival toning, and hand coloring, as well as
giant prints and posters.
