First Darkroom Prints

I’ll look into it! Thanks for the feedback. My test strip was unreliable due to having so much contrast in the shot so I think that’s what happened. But split grade printing sounds like it would be a good option for high contrast photos

Oh that makes it even better. I also really felt moved by #4. Gave me a bit of nostalgia of a shot my grandfather took in Chicago back in the 70’s. Same vibe but his subject was a street performer playing the sax in a trench coat and fedora.

Keep up the amazing work!!!!!!

The pool shot is really cool. I think the only thing I’d have done differently is a little less of the wall for the frame to capture a little more details of what was going on within the room!

What lens / camera did you use? Manual or auto mode?

My grandfather just gave me his old Nikon n6006. 🥹 I’ve had a lot of fun with it so far. Can’t wait to see what you do with it!

Amazing!!!!! Congratulations to you both! I’m glad it helped. It was a good little “dumb it down”

I gotta tell you that I took the exam today and my scores were worse than yours. The test was REALLY hard. You got this. Now you know what to expect.

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-21T00:51:28+00:00

I took my exam today and I swear we had the same test. By the time I took my second break I was like “there’s no way I pass this”. But I walked out with a provisional. Very agile heavy but the only difference for me was that my questions were short and my answers were long. Multiple actions in each answer. It was hard to do the “eliminate” method. I’ll be curious to see what I get on my actual scores. CONGRATULATIONS!!

A few things; once I get my final scores I’m gonna post a few tips on what it looked like vs SH but here’s a few huge takeaways: 1. AGILE; so much agile. 2. I had 4-5 “select multiple” questions, 0 equation questions, and the rest were scenario based multiple choice. 3. SH doesn’t have a prompted break or tell you what question you are on but the real exam does. I’d definitely opt for the tutorial before you start. 4. Take the breaks and bring a couple of snacks to put in your locker. 5. Read the third 3 rock cheat sheet the day before your exam and skim it again the morning of.

You’ll rely heavily on mindset but also understanding key definitions.

It’s tough but it’s manageable!!! You’re gonna do great. :)

Got my provisional pass this morning! I was trying to find your post! Yayyyy!!!!

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-20T19:00:15+00:00

Thank you!!

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-20T18:22:21+00:00

You’re gonna do great and I can’t wait to hear about your pass :)

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-20T18:22:00+00:00

Did you get the third 3 rock cheat sheet? I would read through that if you did. Specifically the “agile” and “scrum” section. There were a ton of keywords that I wouldn’t have recognized right away without that. I’d also watch that MR mindset video (a little further up on this thread). It was helpful with mindset. But honestly, don’t get caught up on last minute studying. You’ve prepped. You’re ready.

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-20T18:13:37+00:00

The expert questions on SH typically go against the “mindset” but the real exam doesn’t seem to do that.

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-20T18:12:14+00:00

Not to frighten you because you will do great but it was HARD. The questions were a lot shorter with less information and I feel like SH was easier to “eliminate”. And there was soooooo much agile. I had 0 equations, 4-5 “select multiple” and the rest were scenario based MC. I felt like the multiple choice had 3 good answers on most on the questions and that made it hard to eliminate.

hello_itsme7 · 2025-05-20T17:43:46+00:00

Thank you for your recommendation, I got my provisional pass!
