my first enlargements

i had to clean my negatives first, because i had wipe away all the water drops on the strip i was using that had the picture i was goin to enlarge.

to put the strip of film into the enlarger. i had to take out the negative folder and load in the strip.

to focus i had to adjust the focus nobs on the side until i thought it was in good focus, and to see if it was in perfect focus. i had to get this mirror attatched to this micro scope and look at my picture with it and if i saw the grains of emulsion on the film strip that ment that it was in perfect focus.

first instead of making the final print i had to do a test strip. to deside on how much light exposure would fit best for the picture and the best would be used for the final print.
