Well, I am holding the first draft of my manual! It's beautiful!

I had planned on sending it out this Friday, but I have a chance to make some changes before I commit to that. So it will be a few days later than I anticipated (but well worth it).

Here's my request: I am looking for high res photos of plates dealing with TROUBLESHOOTING in the process. I am looking for good visual examples the following:

Comets
Pinholes
Sweeps, Burns, Islands
Fogging/Veiling
Varnishing issues (ridges, holes)
Underexposure/Overexposure (pos and negs)
Ridges, Lines
Short Pours
Hesitation Marks (silver immersion)

If you have any that you would be willing to let me use for a credit and a thank you, let me know.

P.S.
The manual has been a labor of love and not profitable at all. I made it mostly for my MFA and for personal satisfaction. Printing costs alone will take years to recoup, not to mention my time. That's why I can't offer money for use of photos. I hope you can understand.

Quinn. I think I can offer some of those (unfortunely). Can we just e-mail
them to you?
Also, how much will the manual cost? I'm very interested.

Thanks
