    Social Networking links, and other 'stuff'...

    Recently we added some new features to douglasphoto.com that we think you will enjoy and benefit from.  First of all is the Social Networking links (picture in the top row of the accompanying image); using these links you can email a page, add it to your blog, share it on Facebook or Tweet it.  If you would like to keep that page handy on your smartphone; you can click on the icon on the far right to generate a QR Code.  Scan that QR Code with your phone and you'll have to url entered into the phone automatically.  The "A" icons on the second row are used to reduce or enlarge the fonts on a page.  So if you're having any trouble reading a page you can click on the large "A" to enlarge the fonts.  We hope you'll give all of these features a try and find that they are as useful as we hope they will be.

Black & White Fiber Printing
Fiber Printing

We are proud to say that we have been doing fiber based printing for over 29 years. 

Black and White Photography DarkroomFiber based prints are also known as silver gelatin prints, these are the standard in archival prints.  When you read about archival printing related to inkjet printers, the standard they are trying to reach is that of fiber prints.  Fiber prints are very commonplace in our society because they've lasted for generations in our families.

We hand process all fiber based prints in a wet darkroom (meaning that we use chemical baths) on double-weight paper.  An 1/8th inch white border is standard on black and white fiber prints.  Sepia and brown toning are also available for fiber based prints.
