I'm not implying anything Paul..???... Obviously your time in the darkroom has given you skills that I haven't got.

Ditto - but I've spent the day in the darkroom making some RC prints from last weekend's meet-up in Devon. The results look good and I'll scan them and post them once they're dry.

I've just ordered some of the new Ilford FB Classic paper so I can make some 'proper' prints next time I'm in the darkroom.

These are my first prints for 25 years, started last night at 6 ish and the next time I checked the clock it was 1:34am..

Despite the dust, wonky borders and odd sizes, I'm loving it all over again..








even had time to mount one

Some good prints there John, with a good range of tones. Well done and don't worry too much about the wonky borders, they can be trimmed.

Yes, some lovely images there. By the way, is the dog an irish water spaniel?

Thanks Terry, they're awesome in the flesh, I'm am going to have to be a little more diligent with the dust though...

Thanks to you too Marty.
The dog is 100% Miniature Poodle, sadly no longer with us, its a 6 year old neg, I guess that's why I was moved to make the print..

Been a while since I....anybody posted in here.
Whilst they still suffer with dust, I've bought a glassless carrier since, I'm looking forward to only fretting about 2 sides instead of 6.
And Warmtone RC is nice

Default New Dark room

Not exactly printing anything just yet. I have just got it up and running properly and waiting for the Nova processor to heat up to 35C. I had switched it on but didn't check the temperiture adjustment which was only set to 22C.
I am determind to print at least one RA4 print before I go to bed tonight, and will scan it abd post tomorrow.
