During my final piece process I used some of my pieces which have been experimentation the final piece and looking at dark room edits. Here are two images with different processes. Some of the dark room projecters were stronger than others, for example the really dark ones were 2/3 seconds but to get it right I had to put a piece of glass over it so it wasn't so strong on the paper.
I changed projecters, one which wasn't as strong and was quite dim infact, I then did this for 4/6 seconds e.g. 4th photo which came out I think in the right contrast, not too light and not too dark.
I wanted to trial dark room edits as they can make photos look older, or more darker, dimmer as it's black and white and if you get the right balance a really contrasting image. With layering this can work for example my fourth image (top image) with the different layers it looks like an old fashioned photo and the bottom picture looks haunted.
