enlarging a negative

I cleaned my negatives with a chemical called photo flow for 15 secs., because they had water spots. Then I loaded my negative into the enlarger and made sure it was in focus. After that we made a test strip with four different timings to see how much time it would take to make a good ex poser. After that we set the timer on the correct timing and made a enlargement.

Negatives

My negatives did not have too much problems, just a couple of water splotches. Which can be easily fixed by soaking them in a chemical. The best picture i took was the one of myself because i caught a smile.
