Enlarger !

Journal Entry: Tue Feb 19, 2008, 3:00 AM
Yesterday, i received my enlarger, bought on eBay.
It's a Durst Magico, a tiny black and white 35mm only enlarger, built to save space.
After buying all other stuff (chimical, paper, lamp, ...) i made my first tries on printings.

The result isn't really nice ... i made a lot of mistakes and waste about half a dozen of sheet of paper... but what a pleasure !
It's really a magical moment when, at the red lamp glow, you see the picture appearing on the paper :)

"I think this shot has nothing to do here.
Image quality is poor: background is full of garbage, no work done on light... in fact, no work at all on this picture.
Just one more "souvenir photo" on DeviantArt..."

What's that all about?
Everybody has a different thought as to what art is, but if you don't like it, respectfully express your opinion, then go about your merry way.
Not intending to "attack" you personally, but hoping to express my opinion on your opinion.

Nice photography, by the way! Beautiful compositions, even if some of them were impromptu/interrupted.

Je t'en prie ! J'aime recevoir des commentaires donc quand je trouve le temps de me promener sur DA, j'essaye d'en donner !
J'aime beaucoup les photos que j'ai vu de toi par blondie dans ta galerie.
Je ne connais pas du tout les frigos, je suis plus du genre à suivre mes pieds dans les rues de Paris et improviser :)

Thanks a lot for this comments. I really like "fog" too, it transfigure reality :)
On this moment, everything looks different, time is stopped, and everything seems asleep.
I definitively like fog :p
Since i had a look to your gallery and favourites, i trust your vision :p

So glad you faved 'teal gaze'... she is a needy little photograph that demands as much attention as is possible. ;)

Might I add that your photo ‘Fog 3’ has caught my eye. It is stunning and I have supreme vision so you must trust me. hehe The scene is so thick, I feel myself at the edge of my chair trying to lean into it…

Fog is my favorite kind of ‘mysterious’, the way it slinks around and engulfs us quietly… it’s truly bewitching, is it not?!
