<p>Thank you all for your responses. Has anyone ever seen someone purposely heating or cooling to developer in order to increase or decrease the highlights for a unique look to your pictures? </p>

<p>Hello all,</p> <p>I recently learned how to process Kodak Tri-X 400 B&W film. I know that the developer needs to be at a very specific temperature and that you can compensate for other temperatures by changing the amount of time that you use the developer. What will happen if you overdevelop or under develop film? Can this effect be used as a technique to alter the way the negatives look or will it just ruin them? Thanks for any help you may be able to offer!<br> Nick</p>

<p dir="ltr">Hello all,<br> <br />I often find myself in a situation where I see potential for a quality photograph however the light source is behind the subject. In other words, take a photo captured outside with the sun behind the subject. I know that this is a bad practice and that it should be avoided if at all possible but lets assume that you can’t take the photo from any other angle. If you meter to the subject, then the sun will come out way too bright but if you meter to the sunlight then the subject will be nothing but black. Any suggestions you may be able to offer are greatly appreciated.</p>
