ABSTRACT
Most photographers have, at one time or another, created masterpieces of over-or underexposure, over-or underdevelopment, and sometimes both! Not all negatives can be saved, but the techniques of reduction and intensifi cation may prove to be just the tonic to reclaim what, undoubtedly, would have been the best photograph ever created. Even if the negative is printable, reduction and intensifi cation techniques can often improve slight miscalculations in exposure or development.
