Happy Mistake


This is an excellent example of one of my 'happy mistakes' in the darkroom, a test strip for a color image that came out in an aesthetically pleasing way, but I probably couldn't recreate this no matter how hard I tried.

I love "happy mistakes"! I never read about people playing around in a dark room anymore now that everything is digital - it looks like fun! Awesome stuff!

Hi Jody! I'm from the 12WC also. Nice to meet you! I agree, very cool to have your own darkroom. I used to be the school photographer and I just loved the smell and silence of the dark room.

Technically I don't have my own darkroom, I would LOVE to have my own darkroom. I'm actually a member of the Vancouver Darkroom CO-OP. Now that most traditional labs are going out of business they are selling off their equipment really cheap and the CO-OP purchased an old color printer. Plus the founder has a friend at Fuji home office in town so we get kick ass deals on film.
