Ground glass and baking soda in Dektol

I take pinholes because of the freedom it offers from tightly organized
images. I usually set the camera low, point it in the general direction and
amquitehappy with the surprise result. I always have some idea of what will
be in the picture, and the size relationships, but would see no reason for
worrying about theimage on a ground glass. If doing this, I might as well
use my 7x17 lens camera.

As for BAking soda in dektol, don't do it. The use of baking soda will
increase the activity of the developer and thus create mor cpontrast, not
less.
