Okay, so it has been a while since I have updated my profile. My pictures have been turning out pretty well, and we finally have new film! This makes life much easier, because the old film was simply screwed up. In most of my pictures this year, there have been what I like to call "amoebas" anywhere and everywhere on my film. Thankfully, we have new film and that problem is gone, for now. So everything from now on should be amoeba-less, except for this post and the next. It has been pretty frustrating to get good prints, and then have them ruined. I still like my pictures so I am going to post them anyways.
The second half of this post is taken from a camera called "the Holga". I like to think she is a rather large, eastern european woman with a thick accent and a nasty snarl. She doesn't like me that much. It took me three times to get negatives with some sort of a picture on them. She is super light sensitive, so she really only comes outside at the height of the sun. She lives in a cave for the rest of the day. I became fed up with her, and decided to shoot in the studio with a flash. This took care of my light problem and I shot some decent pictures. The assignment was "Surrealism", and this was my best crack at it. I took record sleeves and replaced face's with the records. It was somewhat clever, and I take pride in them. Really, they are just some funny pictures with my friends, but they did the job.
