Even when I'm using a changing bag as I do for 35mm and 120/220 (it's darker than my 'dark'room). If you find it hard to print thru the fog in the darkroom you really should try scanning them. when you screw things up a good scanner can rescue every last drop of detail from the neg AND correct the tonality in ways you can only dream of in the darkroom let us know how you get on btw fog schmog. anyone who's used two-bath D23 extensively knows that you can print through almost ANY level of fog. full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes! - -- John Brownlow http://www.pinkheadedbug.com
