couldn't wait

so you know i made that pinhole camera.... well today was a photo work day. YEA!! i got a few (well, two) prints done and thought it was amazing! i was afraid it would turn out since the sun decided to play peek-a-boo in the clouds.... without much 'peek'. when i took the first photo and brought it in to develop the 'negative', i have to admit a little surprise curse came out my mouth. sorry, but it was just so shocking that it worked. i had to go get another!!! thank heavens the temperature wasn't so cold, that exposure time was a very long minute and a half (for both). the second picture, i went to the little creek by the photo building. i set the camera on my knee (not wise) so it's more blurry than i wanted it to be, but it came out too. i waited for the prints to dry and then made the positive prints from them. so amazing!! mostly cause i sandwiched the prints together (print side to blank side) and exposed the printed negative from behind. if this makes no sense to you, sorry.... one day you could come with me to the lab and see it all done. so here are my pinhole prints

negative.... i think i like it better

 positive! this is the entrance to the baseball fields. i love the 'fish-eye' look that the rounded canister gives the photos.

negative

 positive. this is the creek by the building. i know, you can't really tell because of the blur and fish-eye.. i still like it. i may just stick with pinhole stuff for my final project. (i know, fourth week in and i'm already thinkin final)






i did make prints of my nighttime rolls. only three were worth the time. but i'm only putting up the two i like the most.

got up close to a tree with a million lights. turned the speed down to 'bulb', held the camera still for a few seconds, then moved it around.... i kinda like it.

 i liked the effect of the reflecting pool with the lights, so i took a few pictures. this is the only one to turn out, and it's a bit dark. i still like it. how cool would this be in color! next semester i'm doing digital, for sure hitting the temple up at christmas time!
