Black and White Silver Print

After developing the pictures I took for this print I found that most of my negatives were too dense and the image behind it could not be seen. In spite of this set back I chose one negative of a house that was not too dense. In the first print I made both the house and the tree in the bottom left corner showed little difference in value. When the house was easily distinguished the tree had disappeared all together. In order for the tree to show up it had to be burned into the print. In the end after a lot of work the tree and the house were the right density.
