As we all know, 2020 has been a pretty rough year. I’ve accumulated a couple of things during this pandemic, one being a beautiful, relatively small enlarger. The Omega B-600 is definitely the staple of my “darkroom.” I missed printing in the darkroom at school and stumbled upon this enlarger via Craigslist one night. I drove all the way out to the city from Queens to pick it up. The enlarger came with a couple of accessories including safelights, a changing bag and a couple of stainless steel developing tanks.
Now that I’ve acquired the enlarger, it was only the beginning of my quest for a proper analog printing set up. I did a bunch of research and from previous experience, I brainstormed what else I needed to create proper prints. I converted the other side of my room, which was a Photography section already (editing, scanning shooting) into what is now my “darkroom” I cannot wait to test out 11x14 on this thing - more to come on that soon!
