Darkroom

There’s nothing on my schedule today and that is totally fine with me. It’s not just fine, it’s preferred.

I kind of have an actual “wet side” now.

I like the way prints look with a small black border around the image, like this:

I hate making fiber-based silver gelatin prints in the darkroom. But I love having them to hold and to hang.

My last house had a proper darkroom. It was a little janky, but there was a big sink, room for three enlargers, a wet side, a dry side, etc. When I moved into my new house, I originally planned to turn an extra room in the basement into a shiny new darkroom. That didn’t happen, so I’ve been using the bathroom instead. It works fine.
