filters, those canisters you process the negs in, etc. etc. I still have paper but I don't know if it's still good.

That stuff sounds good to have, if I were to build my own darkroom. I'm not there yet. Paper, I'm not too sure about. Might cost less if I just went to the store to get it - and paper needs to be fresh. I'll check with my prof to see if I can use old paper.

What I could really use is some more time in the DR. Do you have some you could spare, time I mean? Send it over. In a big brightly-colored box, with a bow on top. :) <3

Yesterday? Was keeeeraaazy.
