In the Darkroom
Every writer needs a little inspiration once in a while. For today’s prompt, a photography student is about to uncover something…unusual.
In photography, a darkroom is used to process film. While many photographers these days prefer digital, there are a lot of photography schools that still require their students to learn how to shoot and process film.
For this week's prompt, your character is a photography student using a darkroom. While their film processes, they realize that they've captured something that they hadn't intended on...what is it?
