Despite running into a few problems with some underexposed photographs, I am very happy with the outcome of my time in the darkroom. I have also included some scans of my test strips which, upon scanning in groups I found the composition of them combined to produce some very interesting results which I am hoping to play around with further. I was trying to find the delicate line between contrast and correct exposure. In the background of my photographs, I attached white paper letters to a white wall and relied on the light source to produce delicate shadows of the words on the wall, this was the biggest difficulty when deciding how long to expose the print for as there were some were some areas with lots of darks as well as more delicate light areas to my images. I think that some of my negatives had slight water marks on them which creates a unique surface texture on a few of my photographs and although this was not a purposeful choice, I really like the effect that it brings to the work, this sounds like something I’d enjoy playing around with in the future to get more varied results. I would consider the final outcome of these images to be fairly successful because I think the results of this project are playful and evocative.
