After that the vacuum board is opened and a secondary overall the screen in place in order to catch a shadow dot. DD's picture I may have actually used a 3rd exposure with the film still in place of and shoot the photo again without the screen to give the image an artificial highlight and move the middle tones. I probably would have made it look like this for print, depending on the type of stock for print.
