TISSUE

An experiment in the darkroom at the printing stage. I was looking at different ways in which to print and alter the overall appearance of a monochrome photographic print at this stage of the wet-process method of printing.

I used just a plain piece of tissue which was placed directly over the photographic paper, then exposed in the usual way.

Don't think I will be using this method in the future, because it does not really add anything to the creative process. But if you don't experiment now and again you will never know will you?

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN!

It's that time of year again! Meaning it's "Hull Fair" time. For seven days, every October a massive fair descends onto the Walton Street area of West Hull for the annual Hull Fair. The traditions and history of this fair go back 700 hundred years.

The featured monochrome photographic prints are just a small selection from some that I took a few years ago.

Hull Fair, Kingston upon Hull, East Yorkshire, England.

From no specific project as such, circa 2007.
