  Bromide prints are high contrast, black and white images on photographic paper. Something like a 'negative' of a negative. :P These high contrast prints have to be sharp, that's why photograph paper is used, it does not have any fibres. Also because the chemical change on the surface of the print is always a dense black. So the white has to be really white, and the black, really black.

  Wah!!  Such a notti person also have one?  Adult some more!    LF,  cannot be like that! 

  It's time to "Gim Chwee" (literally shut the mouth, meaning, cannot eat anything and everything you fancy!  )  Don't know whether you're heaty or not, but if you continue eating indiscriminately, you might end up both heaty AND liang, which is the worst state to be in!  I suffered such a condition for MONTHS once, and I felt like the living dead!  Be warned! 

  If you still pai si, I will 'boot' (Hokkien for 'beat') you!

  So basically, you have an image. Black and white. No greyscales, nor tones.

  Example: Taken from one of my works. :P

  

   

  For commercial/mass printing, this image will be put on a plate. Whatever the size. It will be clear, because of the contrast. Notice, blacks have tones too, there are light blacks or even dark blacks. And a white, may not truly be white too. Cause of other colours.

  To use a bromide print, and to also include tones. Or partially coloured areas. Halftones are introduced. Basically patterns of dots, of different sizes, and spaces in between to emulate tonal values.

  That's really odd!  I've heard of abstaining from Chicken when one has a cough, but never heard of abstaining from Fish! 

  And LF, you should avoid seafood except fish, and 'dirty' foods like belachan, prawn paste, sambal belachan, etc.  Heavily preserved foodstuff, esp things containing saccharine and aspartame should also be avoided. 

  I have Eczema too!    At least, I thought I did, until it was recently re-diagnosed as "Contact Dermatitis".  The condition came about during the SARS period where we had to wash our hands with surgical-grade soaps all the time.  The outermost layer of my skin got damaged and somehow, up till today, it's extremely sensitive to all soaps, detergents, and hot water.

  Ya la that is what I told her too

  I said I only hear of ppl say avoid chicken

  She is one remarkable woman

  She survived breast cancer that has reached the so called 'terminal' stage and the cancer actually spread to her kidneys. Doctor told her she only have a month but she recovered :o

  But she survived and can go sneak out of the house to go drink Guiness with her khakis!!!!!!!

  It really depends on your handling.

   

  Put it this way - If I'm back in Singapore, I would be more daring, because if I fall ill and get hospitalised, my mom, my dad, and my entire family, plus a few of you guys, will probably visit me in hospital and cheer me up so I'll feel quite pampered and nice! 

  BUT, if I were to get bad food poisoning here and get hospitalised, I'm not so sure I'll get any visitors!    Even if I don't get hospitalised, if I were to get a bad case of food poisoning, I struggle alone.  It has happened to me once already - tamade bak kwa from the blardy Vietnamese shop wasn't fresh.  Ate one slice, and ended up vomitting and having diarrhoea.  Felt so miserable, stuck at home, too weak to go out, no food in the house suitable for my condition then... so poor thing... 

   

  Therefore, I need to play it safe and make sure I don't take any stupid risks whilst I'm here.

  I have switched to Body Shop's Milk Shower Cream with Camomile.  There's also a brand with a funny name here - Batox, that has a Milk and Honey Shower Cream that I love! 

  Body Shop's has organic milk powder in it whilst Batox' has milk powder and real honey listed!  Yeah... I love to read all labels. 

  There are 'natural' soaps sold at the organic shops here, but I don't want to go to that extent, and then become so spoilt that I can never ever use non-organic, generic brands ever again!
