Hello guys,
Snazzy here. Thought i would come in here to find out more about this course. I personally think there's enough testosterone spraying on the walls of this thread already.
I know quite a bit of photography from my husband, and we like to go out and take pictures together, process film together, and learn together. What i'm trying to say is that it's so much fun to learn as a group.
While i can understand that some who learn about B&W processing may need a darkroom, it may not be economically feasible for an instructor to provide one. If there's an overwhelming request and constant demand for it, then i agree, there should be one provided. However, printing of photos is another story. Most of us don't have the time or patience to stay in a darkroom for hours. So, perhaps it might be better if Stanley's students could group together and RENT ONE! Wouldn't that be a better option than to rant and rave about why there isn't one provided?
As for touting for students in someone elses' thread; STUDENT, i don't think that's right at all. Perhaps your intentions are pure, and if so, perhaps you'd like to start a course on your very own. It seems commendable that a non-professional like yourself is willing to impart knowledge to those willing to learn, and i certainly respect you for that. 15mins may not be special in terms of processing time, but neither is 10mins. Those who are knowledgable about processing already know that processing times can be shortened via the increase in chemical temperature, hence the use of a thermometer.
Whatever the case is, before i start another flaming war, let us leave this thread for its intended purposes. :heart:
