said by Hayward  :Uhh because you are just not paying attention AT ALL??? OK, I gave you the benefit of the doubt and reread the whole thread and can't seem to find what I wasn't "paying attention AT ALL" to.
Am I supposed to read your mind and magically know what the crappy water supply is like in South Florida (not that I would ever want to)?
Methinks that you continue liking to be argumentative more than anything else.
Cheers! |

No climate and conditionsw vary a LOT and certainly sociology and politics too..
And BTW I prefer them any ways all I have is a shower.... no tub....and still not the cold waater to put in it even if I did... again you assume a lot that your condition is everyones.

4 edits | Again who isn't reading..... I do not have the space.... I do not have space with plumbing, I do not wish to pay to turn my house into a refrigerator, and chill water to below 75 degrees would also be a necessicity. I doubt KW tap water has ever been below about 73 deg even in winter.
And now that I think about it probably why ALL the 1 hour photo places do such a crappy job the watter is too warm..... doubt they chill it.
Spent MANY hours in a dark room as a kid doing Ektachrome and Agfachrome in the interior windowless bathroom....and NE cool house and well water (that also cost nothing but electric to pump.
And in college, degree in media communications, and a large part of that was photography, .
as well as TV, Radio, newespaper (also involving photo)
OK you were and an AC hound in NO, and kept your house at 68 deg, and had water of that temp too..... so be it, I don't nor care to pay to do it....let alone live in a house that cold. (Vs agin kived up north you didn't want to pay to keep it much warmer.)
.... vs most Miamians blot frover AC'd house to over AC'd car to over AC's mall or restaurant.... and never go outside in summer.
In KW my house in nver below 80 in the summer.... cool ebough to dry the air but no real shock when you go out the door.... and don't mind being outside.
And as I also said as the firt reply in this thread I'd love to have that big ol' Bessie if I had the place for it.
But reason even the childhood home did slides because not the space in that little bathroom for an enlarger, but college was fun full darkroom with several enlargers and lens/carrier sets.... 35mm to 4x5 including for that matter a big ol Bessie.

said by Hayward :Ok but high temp shorter development greatly increases grain.... and agin here it would be typically 10+ degrees over norm without otherwise excessive AC. Not so, all one needs to do is to fill a developer tray with water and ice, then as the temperature in the developing tank rises due to having a sweatshop darkroom the tank is placed on the cold water bath while being agitated and the temperature will stabilize, as it approaches the optimum temperature it is removed from the cold water before it drops too low and monitored. This process is repeated over and over until developing is completed.
And as I said yes prints you can do with just trays, but still preferably a windowless room, but for the film end you really do need plumbing. Yes you can rinse a print but you need to wash film.
While it is nice one does not need, I repeat does not need running water in a darkroom, the rinse process is post fixing and can be done in full light in the kitchen sink if one wishes to. Been there done that hundreds of times.
By the way for developing film no darkroom what so ever is required everything can be done in full light with a loading bag and a daylight devloping tank.
