This is my first print~



Behind  The Scenes.
I used the aperture set at 5.6, because my negatives where quite thin, they needed a lot of light to come through, I also set the magenta to 45, so the photo had more contrast.

I then used a technique called 'Burning' and  'Dodging'.

Burning, is where you make a selected area darker. I used a piece of card with a hole in the middle, as a tool to make certain area of my picture darker.

Dodging, is where you make the majority of the picture darker, but using a tool to ~Dodge~ certain areas, using a dodger, witch is a long  stick with a circle at the end.. looks a little bit like a flat balloon.
