Dark Room Experiments : Vignetting

Vignetting

To create a vignetting tool :

Take a piece of think black card and fold it in half.
Then cut out a semi circular shape so that when you open the card up it is a even circle/oval shape
Place across the photo paper when you are exposing your print:


To create a softer effect, do the same as above, but when you're exposing the picture, move the black card slightly :


I personally like both effects. The first one shows more of the photograph, but the second one has a dreamier and softer effect to it.
