I find it hard to comment on these..

I've been intrigued by window light like this.

Switched to Portra 160 NC.

At Dana Point Harbor.

Shop had a very cozy feel to it, compared to the rest I saw, at least.

Sort of disappointed in the water spots on it, too lazy to get rid of them.

My brother. I don't think it's possible for me to hold my camera perfectly straight.

Skimming.

This is what happens when you're not watching the waves. :p

I had to hop backwards after that or I would have gotten wet too.

I don't have many words for these. I do know I'd like to shoot more beaches, though. Bruce Gilden's Coney Island work is inspiring enough. I think I'd rather shoot in color though.

Yea, I missed the focus, so what.

Probably the shot I'm most happy with from this roll.

My sister used my Holga that day. The roll came out quite well. Really need a scanner capable of scanning medium format.

Later that day I finished the roll at my Uncle's house. Newly moved in. They've got a nice view of the sunset from their backyard. There's also a family of young hawks. They didn't come out until after I finished the roll, though.

Finishing the roll I started (from the beginning of the post)

Think I nailed the exposure here.

Wide eyes.

Waiting.

He just sat there.

At the optometrist.

My eyes are terrible and when I go I have to take my contacts out. Last time and this one I ventured to take a couple shots practically blind and they came out just fine.

She wanted to try on green colored contacts.

I went and saw a lecture by Steve McCurry here.

There was a guy in the front row I saw shooting with an M8 (whose shutter sounded significantly different than I expected) but other than that everyone else was shooting huge dslr's.

At the book signing afterwards. I would have bought a book of his, but I'm broke so I didn't. Also, they were charging far more than what you can get them for on amazon. One guy came prepared with 3 books.

The lady that took this had never used a Leica before and didn't realize I was using film until after she shot it. She was really concerned, "so I can't check to see if it turned out well?" I prefocused for her and set the exposure so all she had to do was hit the shutter. I reassured her that I was positive it would come out.

I also had Steve McCurry sign my Leica, since I had nothing else of significance for him to sign. He did ask me after, "is this film or digital?"

My brother saw me take that one and he said "are you sure that's going to come out?" Exposure time was 1/4s at f/1.4. I told him, "I'm positive."

My cat is weird.

Over in Panorama City..

and then in Burbank

Elevator.

then Hollywood & Highland

Spent a Friday night at a friend's apartment.

Didn't shoot much..

My sister's birthday was little over a week ago.

The sky was cool. Clouds move fast.

This subway station looked like a giant bathroom.

Taco Bell establishment turned Thai BBQ.

Thailand, in LA!

Not sure what these were, but I think they were worthy of a shot. Didn't come out how I would have liked though..

This was quite a confusing encounter.

Could have (should have?) gotten closer.

Rubik's cube.

That's all.

My mural print hanging in the reject show.

Bed.

I've been wanting to take a picture of this sign for a while now. I finally got it. When I was driving past it the other way it was too close and I couldn't get it. But on the other side of the street it worked perfectly!

Cat, sleeping. They do that a lot.

Back at the art show. I went back through the gallery 3 times I think, showing it off to different people. This time I ran into Libby Gerber, a CSUN graduate student. She was watering her piece, which I thought was the most amazing thing.

I bought two rolls of Portra 160 NC because I loved the way it looks.

Home.

Home, also. I liked how the light reflected from the house to the street. Didn't make for that interested of an image, but I had to make it anyway, just to see what it would look like!

One of the last class meets for my photography class. Friend looking at one of my pieces. This larger one I do quite like.

These smaller two, not so much..

Really close crop. (yes, i cropped something :|) Thought this was cool and didn't find out until later that I know the person that did it! Her name is Niku. It's called invisibox. I'd love to see more things done like this on our campus or anywhere really. Electricity boxes or whatever looks so bland being painted a solid color.

160 speed film holds up really well to being cropped!

We spent like 4 hours at this boba place, discussing screenplays, photography and other things that I can't recall. I underexposed this, I think. The colors are cool, though.

This lady was there for like an hour. I really don't know why the person she was talking to didn't just come out around and talk to her, it's not like it was busy..

We finally left.

Back home. I really want to print this one.

Scamper, grass, garden hose, tree shadow, leaves.

Tree, sun, sky, power line.

Really want to print this one as well.

This one didn't turn out as well as I had wanted.

These are boring.

Chair with cat.

This is my final project for my 2D design class. Wanted to document it being worked on at some stage. Over on the right the large spill was still drying (you can see the pool of paint below).

Backyard. These squash plants appeared out of nowhere, no one planted them! There's also tomatoes over on the other side that came up. We think the squash are pumpkins. But there's also another plant mixed in there as well.

My room.

Me.

CSUN Parking Lot.

Fatburger.

More squash.

Scamper.

So many more images to post in queue, but this'll be all for now. Hope you enjoyed reading and viewing them. :)
