Photography Club Head for the Darkroom

Last Friday, Photography Club had a wonderful first session in the darkroom, creating photograms. Photograms are created by placing objects on top of the light-sensitive photographic paper before exposing the paper to light from the enlarger. The pupils learned about the health and safety needed for working in the darkroom as well as learning how to use the enlargers and processing their own images in the chemicals. The pupils were all really excited to see for themselves the magic moment when their images appeared in the developer – they all had fantastic results. We’re looking forward to more sessions in the darkroom before Christmas.

If any pupils are interested in joining Photography Club for the new term in January, email Miss Troughton to add your name to the list – [email protected]
