bonding with your dog
"Richard Knoppow" wrote in message m... wrote in message ... Here are some simple tools for establishing a life long bond with your dog: What the hell has this to do with photography? Well, as I've indicated, a seeing eye dog - especially one very well trained - would be invaluable in the darkroom....particularly, I would think, the color darkroom. Of course, you would have to shave all its fur off before any darkroom session so as to mitigate against any wayward fur landing on the paper during the exposure. |

Chain it to your gear bag when under the cloth. Then he can pull the cart.
I actually started off with this idea but gave it up pretty soon as far to much effort! otzi "Lawrence Akutagawa" wrote in message ... "Richard Knoppow" wrote in message m... wrote in message ...

Do 'seeing eye dogs' have some special sight that allows them to see in total darkness? I find my way around the darkroom by remembering where I put everything. I have found that a second being (human or animal) that can move independently causes problems, as I have no way of knowing where that 'thing' will be. I would also be concerned about the chemicals in the darkroom, especially a color darkroom. Some of the chems may have a smell that dogs would find attractive or that might irritate them. While I do enjoy the company of a loyal, well-trained dog, I'm afraid I must echo Richard K's question: "What the hell has this to do with photography?". If I had a dog, I think that I would first train him to stay out of the darkroom. |

If I had a dog, I think that I would first train him to stay out of the darkroom. I spent today a few hours in darkroom and it was nice when my dog came from time to time to check what I'm doing. But this with fur is true - it's everywhere ;-) From the other point of view - his fur is perfect to test lenses resolution. And because he is dark brown I can also check if I don't underexpose shadows. ;-) Greetings Henry |

Given his marked silence on this issue, my observations are my best guesses as to the appropriateness of dogs in the darkroom. Perhaps you have better ideas than I do as to this issue! |
