DARKROOM PHOTOGRAPHY PROCESS - BURNING SKYS - SILVER GELATIN PRINT

Normally I use my wire tools or hands and fingers to Dodge and Burn in the Dark Room, so I thought this time I'd try out using a cut out matt instead to burn the sky into this print I am making.

I'd like to give much more thumbs up than one. This one and the rest of your videos deserve for it. Fantastic job!

Fagrid Thanks for your kind words :)

The videos on this channel have been so helpful in refreshing my memory as my last proper printing happened over 6 years ago! Thanks so much! I'd be curious to see how you filed the negative holder to include the edges of the negative on a print

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

+Jahan Saber I put the mask in a clamp on a work bench and carefully filed about 1mm from the inside using a metalwork file.

thanks for sharing

Thank you so much! I have been a professional Digital Photographer for over 12 years. I burnt out from the commercial side and now I want to slow down and enjoy photography more in an art form (create). I just pick up tons of 35mm cameras and darkroom equipment under $300. Which was worth over $2,000. Yes, I scored. LOL
Sharing these type of information on your channel will help encourage others to get into film photography. Thank you for this!!

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Thanks David. Nice find! That's why I set the channel up. To help others and encourage others as I know it's a mission to learn! Cheers.

[@andytheghosthunter]

Awesome!! The results look so much better than digital & lightroom!!

[@Bartuul]

Awesome. I tend to struggle with burning in skies, due to the damned halo effect. Especially with long exposure times.

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Bartuul yeah it's tricky. I don't mind a little Halo. Google "Brunelli the animals" halo on steroids and so cool.

+Poppaneedsanap Thanks !

It is a good idea to make masking tools out of thick, black cardboard. Photographic papers let quite a lot light pass through. Otherwise pretty informative!

[@davidsevern3782]

Great tutorial, thank you! I've been a photographer for a good while but only just getting into darkroom printing. Would you mind telling us what sort of easel you're using in this video? It looks like something quite simple with a fixed border which is what I'm looking for...

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Yes, absolutely, just a cheap 2 bladed easel.

[@igaluitchannel6644]

That small white area remaining could be spotted.

[@turbobus4983]

How do you get your prints so flat? Are you using rc paper? Great videos btw, keep up the good work!

[@ShootFilmLikeaBoss]

Turbo Bus thanks. Yes RC paper. :)

[@turbobus4983]

Alright, thanks for the reply!
