You Tube Sunday - How to set up a darkroom

When building a home darkroom, the first thing that you have to consider is the space. This video will help you understand what to look for when choosing a space for your own home darkroom.


The next important thing to think about is how to light proof the room. Watch the video for some quick tips on how to lightproof your new darkroom.


The next video will show you how to design the darkroom (with a distinct wet and dry side)



The next video will show you some of the supplies that you will need in your darkroom.



Now you'll need to learn how to install safe light in a darkroom.


This next video is helpful if you want to know what kind of enlarger you should buy. When buying an enlarger, its a good idea to buy one that supports the use of the largest negative you'll think you will use. This will save you from having to buy another enlarger years down the road. There are however some people who have two enlargers in their darkrooms. So if you have the space, that is another option.


These next two videos will show you how to set up the wet and dry sides of your darkroom.





Learn some quick tips on how to dry your prints (for less money than you expect).




This last tip just tells you to clean your darkroom. Dust is your enemy. It will stick to your drying prints and film (bad news).

YouTube Sunday - 365 Grateful project

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow.” Melody Beattie
