Graffiti
Thursday, October 8th, 2009Starting with a new roll. When I took this I thought I had advanced enough. I'm not sure what happened, but apparently part of this frame saw light.
Manone visited our campus. There was a lecture and a demonstration. It was interesting.
I only documented the demonstration part, the small lecture hall was way overcrowded and I didn't stay for much of that.
Explaining different caps.
Demonstrating.
Everyone was allowed to try it. Suppose the only difference was that this was done on butcher paper, rather than the actual wall.
After the demo, I was walking back to the darkroom, which is just to the left of this scene. I saw all these people standing in front of the wall, thought it was the weirdest thing ever so I had to take a shot.
Turns out it was a drawing class (found out when I passed the doors to the darkroom, noticed more clearly that they were all drawing the vines).
I "reorganized" the lost negatives.
Not quite right? Printing color can be frustrating.
When I took this, he didn't think I caught him in frame.
At Coffee Bean (not Starbucks).
Light was oddly good here.
Commissioned. Such a small car.
Echoing each other.
They repaved a part of the street I take to get to school. It was only like this for one night. I stopped that night and took a few frames. The dust kicked up mixed with the headlights of cars made it look interesting. I'm not sure why but my panning shot looks odd. I would have expected it to be more smooth.
Movie night, later.
That's all for now. I cross processed a roll of Ektachrome 100G and pushed it a stop. The results were ok, I'll post them in the next entry!
Thanks for reading, those that do.
Short, maybe
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009I made a mural print this past semester for my photography class. Making the test strip
With the light on:
My professor made these half tubes for processing the print. A lot more economical than having a rectangular box with a ton of chemical in it.
And the print!
Took about 2 hours from start to finish to make it. Had two friends helping me in there. We went for sushi after.
That's frame #2000. 2000 shots since I got my M6 about a year ago. Definitely doesn't feel like it's been a whole year already.
She took this one:
Tried recovering it the best I could in PS, tried to keep the pretty bokeh from the christmas lights still visible. :p
Mom shredding old documents.
Locks.
Self. These types of mirrors always intrigue me.
Wall, paint, cat, burrito, laptop, bag, blanket, bear, glasses, bracelets.
Mom with Scamper, our new cocker spaniel. Adorable, isn't he?
In class the day we presented our murals. Professor on the left.
Friend's that I helped make a few days earlier.
My bed. I think this was a 1s exposure, was bored and wanted to see if I could get it sharp.
Art opening for a friend. These lovely ladies played music and sang.
And she took a metric ton of photos.
She was cross stitching.
The marble sculpture in the foreground here was/is amazing. The one in the background was pretty cool, as well. There was a thing you could look through in his crotch to see the queen.
Family and mom's friend went to Solvang for the day for her birthday. I suppose it was still a little early?
Trying Æbleskiver. It was quite good.
The burger with no real meat in it wasn't particularly good. It was also green.
Another one of those mirrors.
Cuckoo clocks. So many different kinds. And all fairly expensive. :p
In front of The Little Mermaid replica statue. It was much smaller than I was expecting. I want to see the one in Copenhagen now.
And, for whatever reason, there's an ostrich farm right outside of Solvang. We stopped by and my Mom got to feed them.
They're quite ugly.
Smug ostrich is smug.
But I suppose they can make for pretty landscape-ish shots as well. Fiber print I made of this looks very good if I dare say.
Using my enlarger's baseboard for painting.
Stinky.
Teddy. He's grown so much since I took this.
Easter. My grandmother always wraps up huge cardboard easter eggs with candy inside. Its always done so nicely.
There goes Teddy! (and, of course, we're watching the food network)
Outside searching for eggs.
Mom taking pictures with my 30D.
:)
That makes 43 images. Hope you enjoyed seeing them.
