 ## FLASHING
 
-Double exposing an image with no image--mere light--lightens (or with colored light and color print films, colors) the blacks and darker tones while having little effect on middle tones and even less on lights.
-It is not a true method of contrast reduction.

-## CONTRAST ADJUSTMENT
-
-Gammas add or subtract in a bipack, so bipacking can adjust contrast. A bipack (printed gamma 1 or viewed raw) of an original with its duplicate is like a double contrast original.
-A bipack of an original with its low contrast negative is like a darkened reduced contrast original.
-
-The bipack of an original with its high contrast negative is like a Sabattier solarization!
-
-## COLOR IMAGE SUPERPOSITION
-
-There are the same three basic types.
-
-Double exposure from positives gives additive color mixture.
-Bipacking gives so-called subtractive color mixture.
-When bipacking color negatives the extra orange mask should be neutralized by filtering.)
-
-Double exposure from negatives gives something else.
-
-For greys in the two images, combination is as for B&W.
-But for colors, not only are new colors produced but apparent brightnesses do not combine quite the same ae for B&W.
-
-The dyes in Wratten CC filters Y, M, C are similar to those in color films.
-Film colors can be simulated by packs of these filters and much can be learned about film color manipulation from familiarity with the filters and their combinations.
