Placing the paper on the page:

How the print is positioned on the page can be the difference between an amateurish attempt and a convincing professional effort, an effort that in some cases extends the persuasion of the original image. 
 
For most beginners, creating an image generates such excitement that they fail to look critically and see what the print really looks like. Often the image sits crocked on the paper, with one edge showing a black boarder, a second edge cut sharp from the easel blade, while the other two edges are fuzzy from where the edge of the neg carrier acted as the cropping device on the paper. Being critical and spending time to align the image on the paper exactly where you want it is well worth the time and in terms of framing there are quite a few options.
