This is true. Between being told how difficult it was to get a good print
and how dangerous the chemistry was, I suppressed my desire to do Alt
Process work for several years.
You know the regular photographic process isn't easy either. I could make
a silver gelatin print immediately after I was show how to do it BUT it was
a LONG time before I could make a truly beautiful, luminous print.....and I
am still learning how to make it better. But you have to start somewhere.
