Scan of contact print from a FB paper neg exposed in home made simple lens camera.

Had troubles with dark slide jamming on the paper.

What a neat rescue of a potential disaster. It looks like the paper bowed upward and caught the edge of the slide. And, gee whiz, the ticket office came out fine.

I never have this luck. When I can't get the dark-slide back into an exposed holder I invoke the name of the Saviour, including his seldom heard middle name, and shove that dark-slide harder. But it does no good. The 8x10 sheet falls "plop" into the bellows of the camera and I have an expensive lesson.
