Schlieren Photography - How Does It Work?

"Schlieren” are density variations in a gas or liquid that you can’t see with the naked eye, like air currents caused by heat, movement, or explosions.



Not a pretty picture for the germphobic like myself.

B&W design & comp project 1st draft



Well this is the picture out of my 72 negatives the professor chose. Of course, it's the one I liked the least! It's actually the last I took; I realized I had to cook off a few before rewinding. UGH!

Photography 101 Update

My film class is going well. This week we developed our first rolls of film ourselves and made a test print to determine the exposure on the enlarger. Here is mine at 5 second intervals. My starting point was determined to be 10 seconds with a +2 filter.
