One other interesting thing I’ve done, is to put a sheet of photographic paper
in a large format camera, and leave it for an extended period, Hours, Days… and
the paper darkens without development. An attempt to develop the image will
result in a completely blackened sheet of paper, but scanning the image without
development can result in quite a subtle image, often with some lilac or yellow
tones, even though the original paper was BW.
I think the Darkening is the result of what is known as physical development,
but without going back to the literature, I can’t be sure!

Dana,
What kind of speed? Was the paper VC?

Hi everyone!
I was wondering what kind of results one could expect from
shooting photo paper in camera? Is the scale too short to
be useful to scan?
I made several decent contact prints from a paper "neg" in a pinhole camera,
I'm sure I'm not alone. This, of course, suffered from the softening effect
of printing through the paper, which you could surely avoid with scanning,
reversing and inverting the image.
