A safe bet would be that until you've worked in the darkroom for 10
years, intensively, I can scan any negative and produce a more
artistic (and archival) print with carbon inks and Hahnem?lhe Photo
Rag that will surpass your efforts.

In the meantime, you will have lost all of your girl and/or boy
friends as you are squirreled away out in the darkroom and it is a
basic assumption, though lacking in scientific proof, that you can
never become a good photographer without sex.

Enjoy!
