first few days of printing

I spent four days in the darkroom and I’ve produced these images so far. I am reasonably happy with what I’ve managed to produce. I’ve grouped the ones that I’m most happy with in terms of the quality of the print at the top of the page and the ones that need to be redone at the bottom.

I’ve made 13 so far, so I still have room for a few more. I’m planning on making more of Jonny, possibly of him during the rest phase/when he’s finished or the press up one if they are in reasonable focus.

The bottom three images all have the same problem which is the greyness of the skin. I can resolve this by using a zero or zero zero filter which will lighten the lighter parts of the photograph.
