Notes from 30th Jul 2003
[posted at 10:00 GMT]    

After a printing few pictures with new inks I realize that my negatives do not look as good as I though. Now when printing time is here you can see what real good negative is. I definitely must improve my developing and exposure technique to perfection.
I also realize that black ink is not as black as I would like to have it. After printing on EAM and Ilford Smooth Fine Art ink jet paper I have need to try PhotoRag and new Forte inkjet papers. I asked friend to bring me some Forte from Sweden and maybe I will succeed to order some PhotoRag from UK or DE wherever I can get it cheaper. It is really pity that I do not know and can't find source of these goods in Netherlands.
Soon going on holiday so I do not have much time for too much experiments but I like to develop some lately exposed Neopan this time in Ilford LC29 for change.
