Chemical Splashes

Here is a set of three photographs, of sort, that I created in the darkroom. The process is relatively simple. The paper that was used was photo paper that had already been exposed but not developed yet. Then I just dripped fixer down the paper, then developer...then let it set for about a minute or two? Then dunk it in the developer for less than a minute. You can create all sorts of effects and results depending on how you drip the fix and developer, as well as what type of paper you use. Experiment and see what you get!
