Probably it's better if you ask a professional photographer or a student. Did you try searching on the internet? I like the second picture.

yeah i did google it
i just wanted simple instructions not some long bullshit that will take me an hour to read

i'll just keep paying to have them developed, i don't think it's possible to have a dust free environment in my house

thanks btw

Honestly not that hard at all, provided you have a safelight, the necessary chemicals and an enlarger...

yeah but my house is old which means dust which means fucked up negatives which means fucked up prints

[terriblecanyons]

It really shouldn't be a problem unless the chemicals are old/enlarger has dust in it/etc and you keep your emulsion paper sealed off.

idk it just seems like kind of a pain in the ass

thanks though

It's all horribly out of focus, which somehow helps.

black and white film develop is pretty easy in a home environment. Printing photos not so much but it's possible if you buy an enlarger. Colour really isn't possible.. requires more strict temperatures and timing and there isn't room for really any light, unlike b/w which is a lot less sensitive (reletively). Different equipment for develop/enlarging too, For colour yr really better off staying with an amateur/pro lab. It's going to be cheaper for you and better quality.

The amount of testing and calibration to machinery a responsible lab does daily really would not compare with what most people even the artistically inclined could be bothered to do at home. With machinery that used to start heating up for me a couple hours before I'd come in of a morning, plus another 40 mins or so worth of checks and test strips and graphs before I'd even put any film/prints through. yeh.. not so much. Can you imagine doing it all for just one roll at home?

b/w is easy though so I say go for that. You seem to like lo fi stuff too, so could play around with even maybe making your own enlarger and buying some second hand filters.. you could get some cool results.
