For the Richard Avedon assignment. From top: Rukaya, Eleanor, Celeste.

The little Eleanor mini-series.

What sort of sound does an Eleanor make?

There. That's what you get when you tell me I should post more photos. You get photographs of yourself. The drips and slotches and chemical screwups are still there like they were in the negative. Because I hate Photoshop. No that was a lie. That's just the kind of photographer I am.

We're back in business.

Silly HOLGA... you focus in the strangest places.

Focus? Who needs focus?

Wow all of my photos are of the same person. Mayhaps I need to branch out...

Some crazy contrasty stuff popped up on the left when I converted to jpeg but I'm not going to put the effort into fixing it right now. So shoot me.

I don't know why I like this photo so much... It looks crappily taken because I was shooting over my shoulder without looking.

I did say there would be more double exposures from me.

Also from Denver. My mum likes this one a lot.

Thanks to a victory against my scanner, I can now start putting stuff up again. This is another one from Denver.

This shot was taken a long time ago, but I just now got around to making a print. I don't know what it is about this photo, but it makes me really happy. Titled: I've Got Your Egg In My Pocket.

I found an interesting quote today:

"You know what I think? The ease of digital photography is making us a world full of crappy photographers. When you only had 12 shots on a roll and had to wait a week to see your photos, you were more thoughtful..."

-Gene McSweeney

Result of another travel into double-exposure land.

...What a rebel. This shot was from forever ago. I think it's from the first or possibly second roll of black and white film I ever took. I'm wondering how much my style has changed since then...

Oh my. Is.. could it be?? My first successful darkroom solarization? I'm so happy.

Waving Goodbye with the Can to the Sky

Oh, oh my. Have we actually caught up? We have! I shot this a few weeks ago and printed it yesterday.

So. So so. I have found a use for this little blog of mine. It shall be my photoblog in case I ever leave DeviantArt. I'll be posting one or more of my old photos every day (let's hope I remember) until I get caught up.

The angle's not very oblique, even though that was the assignment. I have a lighter version of this, but I don't know where it went.

Inverted in the darkroom, not Photoshop.

In the halls of school during passing period. Silly silly motion, but I screwed up the first roll of film I shot for the Motion assignment by... um... using fixer instead of developer. And this roll was shot really quickly to make the deadline, so...

I Dream of Shoes on Powerlines
HOLGAs are fun, but I didn't do so good keeping the light leaks out. Expect more HOLGA goodness from me.

This assignment sucked. So you were supposed to shoot random people without really looking throught the viewfinder, and being the slick, sneaky photographer that I am (not) I got yelled at by people when they saw that I was taking photos of them. Whoops. So this was the Winograd assignment. You know who Gary Winograd was? Well it was named after him.

Tetris, anyone?
So we went wandering down this one street in Denver looking for this one alleyway, and this was it. It wasn't as cool as promised, but it was okay. Liz stood and posed for us, and that made it okay.

This is Molly. I'm not sure she wants a photo of her up here. Hopefully she won't get mad. It's titled, People and Buildings. Fitting, huh?

Took this photo when I was down in Denver. It would have worked really well for the Architecture assignment, but that's not what I turned it in for.

Instead I turned this in for the Architecture assignment, which is silly because it's not architecture in the least, but the photo teacher liked it.

All of these were taken at the hospital I used to live by. The top is titled Bricks, Grates, and Princes, and the other titles don't really matter much. Bricks, Grates, and Princes was my first sucessful double exposure, but I'm hoping to mess with double exposing a little more, so hopefully something else I like will come out of that this semester.

I took this one of Lolo at this party we went to, and she was lounging on the grass with this camera perched on her palm and then I told her to freeze but someone snatched her camera away, which is why her hand is all out and such. It's titled Back and Twisted, and it's that first photo that I had a title I liked for.

This little series of photos I turned in for the Favorite Body Part assignment. ...That assignment that needs to be called something else. I don't actually think that the back is my favorite body part, though I do like it quite a bit. Collarbones are lovely, but I didn't shoot them that day. But I did get quite a few good photos out of that roll. I still haven't printed all the ones I like. No title on these. And the tattoo's fake. I was babbling about how I wanted to take photos of people's backs with tattoos on them, and Liz said she had a cheesey tattoo of a tiger, and so on her back it went.
