We tried to take photos, but photos took us :')

So after the tiring process of gathering and assembling the cameras, we moved on to the next important stage: taking photos and developing them. Fortunately, our professor had some developing materials of her own and gave it to us (Thank you Dr Iman); we thought that the problems are done and that we had everything in control now, but .. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA.

We agreed to meet after the last FYE day ends to start taking photos and we found ourselves in an even larger muddle; we need a dark room. We spent around 2 hours roaming the university for a dark place (And having to explain ourselves every time we ask for it, not to be misunderstood), and again, we found NOTHING. However, after a long brainstorming session, we found no place except Omar's dorm room. This seemed like the optimum choice so we went ahead and implemented everything we saw in the tutorials.

and here is the result after more than 5-6 hours of dedication:

That was a tree

We tried every developing sequence with all the materials and it didn't work, we changed the trays and it also didn't work. We tried capturing in bright light and low light with different exposure times, but it still failed. Maybe that was meant to deliver a lesson: knowing how to do something doesn't ensure success, success comes with experience and failures; only people who are experienced enough in these things can do them. That is why our writings won't be near enough what's expected from us if we don't fail a lot and try to take feedback seriously, developing our essays is not our profession yet, so we have to take it from someone who can.
