PHOTO of the DAY - Photodeveloper.

There are cloudy days when it seems that the sun has left our planet, leaving instead of itself only a dim light scattered behind a thick haze, which is no longer able to warm the earth plunged into deep autumn.

Especially, often, such a feeling is visited during marches through the swamps of the derge with the camera at the ready.

Yes, the sky looks like matte photographic paper that has not yet been exposed to the light of a photographic enlarger, remember such a device from the past, when there were no computers yet?

Yes, then, sitting in a dark bathroom under the dim light of a red lantern, I printed photographs.

After the print from the negative film appeared on the photographic paper, it was necessary to immerse a sheet of paper in a bath with a photodeveloper solution, and then in a bath with a fixer, whose task was to fix the image on paper.

In this photograph, a small puddle became the photodeveloper that showed me the sun, which was not visible in the sky, and the photograph itself became the fixer.

Zoom in on a photo for a closer view.
