UPDATE TO FORMULAS

We have just updated the FORMULAS area here on the jbhphoto.com BLOG (click the link at top of the page).  What you will see is mostly cosmetic with a few corrections here and there.  The formatting of the older area was made of screen grabs of notes and was not that well organized.  Hopefully it is now a little more tidy.

Very little changes in the realm of the wet darkroom and film photography.  There are no fads. . . no here today, gone tomorrow. . . no high-tech gadgets. . . no amazing updates.  Traditional film photography is a craft you learn; fine tune; then use.  The bottom line is the finished fine print.  Traditional film photography is very old fashion and grounded in down-to-earth proven techniques, that once learned are the backbone of the art form.  Bottom line; not a lot to stand in line or camp on the street to be the first for some new-fangled gadget or upgrade.  Once you master the technique, there are no excuses not to produce finished work.  Film photography is a craft; you learn it; then you use it; for the rest of your life; and you pass on what you have learned.

In our Formulas area you will find the mixtures we use.  Nothing very special about anything we do, and it would be a good assumption you will see little new there.  Take what you can make work for you; leave anything else for the next interested photographer.
