Print 1

Above is my 5x7 print from photography. I chose this specific image because out of all the photos, it had the most black, white and grey although it is a bit out of focus. To create this print I had to go through a short process. First we had to go outside and take pictures. We took a total of 24 pictures, using the entire roll of film. Once that was done we had to take out the film and develop it using the chemicals. Once it was developed we were able to expose the film to the light. We cut the film into strips of 5 pictures and observed all of them. I chose one of the strips and did a test strip exposing it for increments of 2 seconds to the enlarger. Then we ran the test trip through the chemicals and after it was done we looked to see what duration of time gave the pest picture. For me, it was 6 seconds. I shot another test trip exposing the whole strip for 6 seconds and developed it. Once I saw that it was good I had to select which picture from the strip that I wanted to use. I chose the image above and i had to put just that picture in a negative carrier. I shot a test trip of that on increments of 2 seconds and it revealed that 4 seconds was the better time. I shot another test strip of just that image for a full 4 seconds and after developing it was perfect. I shot a 5x7 image of that picture for 4 seconds as well, developed it and above is the final result.
