Q: Once the film is completely dry, lay it on a flat surface and examine it for streak marks. If you see any, soak a paper towel in film cleaner and gently wipe it across the surface of the film to remove the streaks. You can find film cleaner online or at your local photography store. Cutting your film into smaller strips will allow you to store your film in plastic sleeves until you’re ready to print them. Use scissors to cut the film into strips of 5 along the lines dividing the negatives. It’s important that you keep your developed film safe until you’re ready to turn it into prints. Plastic sleeves will keep moisture, smudges, and debris from getting on your film. Leave the film in the plastic sleeves until you’re ready to make some prints out of your negatives.  Store the plastic sleeves in a binder or folder when you're finished. You can find plastic film sleeves online or at your local photography store.
A: Clean the film with a film cleaner to remove any streaks. Cut your film into strips of 5 negatives. Slide the film strips into plastic sleeves for protection.

Q: Pluck or wax any hairs you don’t want in your brow line. Brush your eyebrows upward with a spoolie brush to see the shape of your brows. Trim the tops of your brows if you have longer hairs you don’t want above your brow line. Use an eyebrow pencil to line it. Shape the bottom arch into the shape you want for your brows. Make your line heavier from the center of your iris outward. You want to end with a very dark, well defined tail for your brow. Use an angled brush and brow powder or eyeshadow to fill in any sparse areas. Make light strokes working from the inner corner of your eye outward. Also use your angled brush and powder to smooth out and blend the color from your pencil. Apply more powder at the ends of your brow. Consider using a slightly lighter shade of powder in the inner corner of your eye to emphasize the gradient effect. Take your spoolie brush and brush through the beginning of your eyebrow. Wiggle the brush around to soften the color on the inside of your eye. Next, lightly brush your brows outward with the spoolie brush. Make sure to blend any clumps of color as you brush. Outline the edges of your eyes and the rim of your bottom arch with concealer. Use a concealer brush and blend the concealer. You can also use a concealer pencil, but be sure to blend it very well. Apply some clear gel or clear mascara to set your brows. Further highlight your arches by feathering very light eyeshadow under your brow bone up to your eyebrow arch.
A: Start with clean, dry brows. Line the bottom arch of your brow. Fill in your brows with powder. Diffuse the color at the beginning of your brow. Clean and set your brows.

Q: Before using a microwave sterilizer, give your microwave a good scrub with a gentle detergent. Remove any food splatters and greasy buildup on the inside walls, door, top, and bottom. Like electric steam sterilizers, microwave steam sterilizers need water to function. However, microwave sterilizers use heat from your microwave, rather than an internal heating element, to create steam. Consult your user manual to determine how much water to add to your model.  Many microwave sterilizers have a removable steamer rack on which to place the bottles and accessories. Remove this before filling with water, and then replace it. Check your user manual to find out if distilled water is recommended for your unit. Make sure the bottles, nipples, and caps are placed open side down so that the steam can enter them from below. Check your manual for specific instructions on how to load the bottles and accessories, as some units may have designated spaces for each part.  Never put anything metal in a microwave sterilizer.  Your bottles and accessories should be clean before you load them into the sterilizer. Microwave sterilizers typically come with a plastic lid that is designed to keep the steam inside during sterilization. Make sure that the lid is on securely before starting the process of sterilization. The amount of time required will vary depending on the steamer and the wattage of your microwave. Some units may need no more than 2 minutes in a high-wattage microwave set on “high.” Check the settings on your microwave and consult the manual for your sterilizer to be sure of how much time is needed. The bottles and accessories will be very hot after you microwave them. The sterilizer will need to cool for at least 2 minutes before it will be safe to handle. Like many electric sterilizers, microwave sterilizers are designed to keep your bottles and accessories sterile for up to 24 hours if the lid is left on.
A: Clean your microwave before sterilizing. Add water to the sterilizer. Load the bottles and accessories. Close the lid. Microwave the unit according to the manufacturer's instructions. Allow the unit to cool before removing the bottles and accessories.

Q: Taking time to think about the composition of your shot is also important. This means thinking about the story that you want to tell about your subject or subjects.  For example, if you are photographing a man sitting on a bench in a park, what is his story? Is he waiting for someone? Is he sad? Happy? Concerned? What else is happening that is relevant to this man? How can you frame your subject to tell this story? If you want to portray the man as lonely, then you might choose to frame him in such a way that no other people will be in the shot. You might also look for interesting things in the background or foreground to help tell your story about the man. For example, framing the shot so that a statue of woman is in the background might help to make him seem like he is lonely. Investigate your surroundings and experiment with different angles and ranges to frame your shot and tell your story. Shooting with something in the foreground or background can help to add dimension to your photos. If you want your subject to seem small, then you might place something in the foreground of the shot. If you want your subject to look large, then you might place something in the background.For example, you might take a picture of someone standing on a beach, but photograph the person from far away with a seashell in the foreground. Or, you might photograph the person from a closer vantage point, but capture a seemingly endless white beach in the background. Sometimes photos do not look as good as they could because you are too far away from your subject. If you notice that the details of your subject are hard to make out, then try moving a little closer. For example, if you took your first shot while standing 10 feet (3.0 m) away, then take the next one from 5 feet (1.5 m) away. Keep checking your shots and adjusting your distance until you have captured the desired amount of detail in your shot.
A:
Identify the story you want to tell. Add dimension to your shot by placing something in the foreground. Get closer to your subject to capture more detail.
