It is sad. It get even dimmer. It seems misses the focal length of the lens. Experiment for the sake of trying to shine a flashlight with a twisted prism.


The result exceeds all expectations, but keep a flashlight so is not an option.


It's time to fill the tape. Choosing the right crop or resize (yes, framing was not done with Photoshop and select the desired crop box, which limited the area of ​​exposure). At the same time put a piece of glass mat in a special pocket on the film.

The picture appeared on the paper, wait until it becomes sufficiently clear. The main thing is not to overdo, and then deteriorate and it will be too dark. All further into the lock.


Wait till some time, washed in a basin of clean water and hang to flow around.


While the liquid flows from the pictures we obtain glyantsevatel. This heater with mirrored surfaces, which makes our glossy photos.


Screwed legs, handles, remove the mirror.


We put a photo picture to the mirror. Packer roller that there would be no air bubbles.

After waiting a sufficient photo dry. Turn off glyantsevatel, remove the cloth and mirror. Photo of herself jumping into our hands. Smell svezheprosushennoy pictures remembered for a lifetime :)
