How an image is created on a negative?

Negatives are usually formed on a transparent material, such as plastic or glass. Exposure of sensitized paper through the negative, done either by placing the negative and paper in close contact or by projecting the negative image onto the paper, reverses these tones and produces a positive photographic print.

What’s the meaning of negative?

Negative means focused on what is bad or lacking. A negative ad tells you bad things about the competition. A negative person loves to complain. In math, a negative number is less than zero. People who see the glass half empty have a negative outlook.

How do you scan negative?

Get some silver card stock—it’s not terribly expensive, but you’ll want it to be thick—and fold it up into a wedge. Position that wedge behind your negative, and the light from your scanner will hit it and reflect off, which gives you a crude (but effective) backlight for what you’re scanning.

Can old negatives still be developed?
