Good negative + good coating = beautiful print! |
Finally got into the darkroom yesterday afternoon for printing! If you've never heard of palladium printing, it's an antique photographic process that requires you to mix together chemistry, hand-coat it onto paper, and expose it to UV light. The resulting print is whatever size your original negative was. I had some old chemistry lying around, so I crossed my fingers that it would still work. Here are some of the results:

Now for some trouble shooting...This negative didn't get pushed all the way into the negative holder--oops!

The second exposure is a lot better-- except the light changed and the shadow is a bit odd. Oh, and the missing parts reveal that I didn't coat the chemistry evenly... | |
