[Noisebridge-discuss] darkroom at the noisebridge space

[Mitch Altman]

I had a photo that I really liked.  I was taking classes at SF Art Institute at the time, and was planning on making a large-format print of the negative.  But someone broke into my car (which I had at the time) and everything in it was lost, including the negative.  I went to a copy shop and made a 120 sized negative transparency of the 4"x6" photo, and used it to create a 2'x3' color print.  It turned out really great!  You could see some of the digitizing effects that the color copier added when creating the transparency, but I like it for the subject matter of my print.
 
I could see printing directly to a b&w transparency from a camera, and then printing from that.  Worth playing with.
 
Mitch.
