Today we went into the dark room and did some prints of our pictures we took last week. First we did contact prints, these are when you get your negatives and put them on top of a piece of photographic paper then put the light on it and put it through the different chemicals.
After we had done some contact prints we did bigger prints, we did this by putting the negatives into the enlarger and print the picture on a peice of paper.
I found it easy to do the prints but also found it hard to find the right amount of light time o put on the prints.
I did a test strip with half a peice of photography paper, I used a picture we had taken and printed it for 2 seconds at a time while covering the other pieces of the paper witha peice of card.
I meade two final prints, 1 was to dark so it needed less time where as the other was to light so it needed slighty more time.
I found out that the best time for the paper to be under the light is about 4-5 seconds.
