Show me your latest darkroom prints

1st and 5th are crackers! Great stuff. Who needs an easel?

What film BTW?

 

[Fotohuis]

If the prints are big enough 😉 you do not need an easel for PE/RC anymore. However, yes they are expensive because a Dunco 90/5 pro (40x50cm 4 blade adaptable) is going over Eur. 550,-

4 - I think Delta 400
5 - Tri-X
6 - Eastman 5222 (Double X) EI 800

jkjod- When I first started, I had the outside dimensions of a mat cut at the size of the paper I wanted to print on and the window a bit bigger than the image size I wanted. I then positioned it on the enlarger base to fit the projected negative and hinge taped the top of the mat. I could then slide a full sheet under the mat, align the edges by feel and tape the lower edge to hold it in place. I just used blue painter tape since it peels off easily from my enlarger base.

Stage lighting can be great for photography!

Indeed, unless it's amateurish. Then you have no choice but to wait for the actors to stand on the right spot 🙂

I printed and framed this up today. It makes a nice diptych with my New Orleans print.

Managed to print the first analogue darkroom prints ever.
2 hours for 3 prints, I guess that was a bit too long.

One of the best photos of the last weeks.....!

 

[shadowfox]

So many new and beautiful prints.
Thank you so much for contributing to this thread.

Whenever you can, tell us what paper and developer that you use. Just assume that all of us are interested in knowing. This will cut down the posts that has no images (like this one) asking those basic question.

So we can go back admiring more prints. 🙂

Thank you!

This is my best print so far. Looking for frame, because it is my first ever print my wife wanted on the wall.
Printed two days later and I'm still struggling to get crisp prints. This is how my current average looks like...

Ilford and Kentmere RC in Ilford universal developer.

Just hit 4.5 hours in the darkroom - started two weeks ago and already hooked.
The place I go to is far so I ordered a small enlarger for home use when time doesn't allow for the trip to the proper darkroom.

On the picture are my 3rd / 4th and 5th prints ever.
