DEFECTIVE

NEGATIVES.

By following

closely

the

foregoing

directions,

the

novice

can

make

seventy-five

pet

cent

.,

or

upwards,

of

good

nega-

tives.

Sometimes,

however,

the

directions

are

not

followed,

and

failures

result.

To

forewarn

the

camerist

is to

forearm

him

and

we

there-

fore

describe

the

common

causes

of

failure.

Under-Exposure.

Caused

by

making

snap

shots

indoors,

or

in

the

shade,

or

when

the

light

is

weak,

late

in

the

day

or

by

closing

the

lens

too soon

on

time

exposures.

Over-Exposure.

Caused

by

too

much

light.

Negative

develops

evenly,

shadows

almost

as

lights.

No

no

Ovtr-Exposure

can

be

overcome

in

the

unless

itis

known

to

have

been

over-exposed.
