Hi all,
On the emulsion side of a 4x5 negative a "pin hole" size of the emulsion is missing - no hole just scrapped away either as a factory defect or due to my handling. It shows up as a tiny black dot in a - yep - white cloud. Step 3 feet away from a 16x20 print and it disappears. What is the best way to "spot" this out on:
a. The print (I printed 3- 16x20's).
b. The negative.
Also, is there a book or tutorial on spotting? I'm a complete novice in this and in the past ruined a B&W print or two trying to spot it. It seems that the art of spotting is much negected.
Thanks and Happy Holidays,
Thomas
