The American annual of photography . loping papers, andif detail is to be subdued a rough surfaced paper may be usedand a broad effect secured. Those who desire impressionisticeffects can print through bolting cloth, or thin sheets of 305 celluloid, and if a more subdued effect is desired prints maybe made from the glass side of the negative. Negatives of the class described are necessary for the pro-duction of the finest platinum prints as well as for the carbonprocess and first class enlargements can only be made froma technically perfect negative. The negatives made with a soft focus lens have a place inour art science and if made by a careful worker who hasartistic ability often yield beautiful results, but for the averageamateur negatives as described will be most satisfactory. The writer is not an advocate of any particular school butalways endeavors to make a print that will give a pleasingrepresentation of the scene, and it will be found that a goodnegative will be the first step in the production of such THE BREAKING WAVE.
