Cropping a print

It is possible to make dozens of different prints from one negative. Cropping is the process of cutting out material from a negative and only printing PART of the negative. The print does NOT have to be smaller like our example, you can crop and make the picture bigger at the same time.

For this assignment you are to take one of your negatives from your files (no need to go out and shoot more film) and make TWO prints from the same film.  Make one print of the FULL frame and then crop out a print from PART of the negative. Both prints should be the same size, either 4x5 or 2x3. And, as usual each print should be good print quality, interesting composition and subject matter, etc.
