ightneeded. Exposure.—Be sure and give plenty of time. I generallygive from Ten to Twenty-Five or Thirty Seconds accordingto the light. Of course the subject, pose, background, andeffect desired will have a great deal to do with the exposure.A few trials will give the photographer a good idea as to thecorrect time for different subjects. Plates.—I have found that most ordinary plates will givegood results, but Isochromatic or Orthochromatic Non-Halation will be found best. Development.—Any ordinary developer may be used, but Ihave found a weak solution of Rodinal best. The platesshould not be developed too long as rather thin negativeswill give the best results. Printing.—I have found Platinum best suited for such light-ings and subjects, but if a developing paper is used, the rougherand softer grades will give better effects from these negatives.This method of lighting is very simple and interesting and afew experiments will more than repay the photographer forhis trouble. 32
