PAPER NEGS

Shot a few paper negatives in the Kodak last month trying to figure out the exposure time. Also wanted to see if I could get some decent images with it. These scans came out pretty good, just very contrasty. Going to try out some printing filters and see how it goes.

WEEK 2

These are the non existent photos from week 2. I didn't make it out of the house much less the bed most of the week. Its not over yet.

WEEK 1

My resolution for this year is to take at least one large format picture a day, six days out of the week. Leaving myself a day off to chill but most likely to process and post. That didn't happen though. Week one was ruff, cold, and nocternal but some how I was able to snap a few photos. I took two 9x12 photos I haven't developed yet and the rest on 120 film with awesome scans.

Just because I'm kinda blowing it with my new year resolution so far does not mean I'm throwing in the towel. I'm just giving myself a chance to get in the grove.

COMING TO A CLOSE

I'm trying to put a close to my new years resolution and all I have left to develope is a few rolls of 120, a hand full of 35 and a shit load of scanning. Nothing a few late nights won't solve. I will wait on scanning the medium format because my all-in-one scanner/copier/printer just doesn't do that well with scanning negatives.

These photos are from a contest in East Oakland put on by Roughneck Skateboards. At the time I just got a roll film back for my old Kodak and wanted to take it for a spin.

AWW SHEET

I picked up a couple boxes of 4x5 film and a sheet film developing tank from urban ore a while back. I knew I would eventually need the tank and for $6 I jumped on it. The film was like 60 cents a box, so if it was exposed... oh well. I had to trim the film down a little to fit 9x12cm for my old folding Kodak. Next time I'm going to use something better than a cardboard template and an exacto knife, but for testing the film it got the job done.

I had to wait till he was sleep to set up, focus and take a shot with that old camera. I can barely do it with a manual focus slr, he is to quick.

Sorry Sabah, I wish this one had come out better. I took ten minutes setting up the shot with some house plants in the forground and crap. Thats what I get for trying to use the whole negative.

Shot this last one of my wash tub sink, late night while developing film. I figured I might as well shot this last one and see if this sheet film is any good. Its defenitly worth what I paid for it. So I have about 25 more sheets to mess around with. Its should be fun.
