Description part of a self portrait project in photo class [where the person was not supposed to be in the photo...] I bullshitted the reasoning behind it, but I can't remember what it was anymore. It went along with four other pictures, but they're too shitty to post.

I mostly thought it just looked kind of cool. :/

btw, sorry it's so grainy. it looks a lot better in real life. effing glossy paper.

Looks sweet.

You should've taken some more pictures outside. The only ones I've seen from you are inside, and interiors are really hard to light, especially for beginners. I've never tried but everyone told me it's a bitch.

Go take some pictures outside!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, to avoid that just try to keep the ammount of sky in the shot to a minimum. But like, for alot of portrait work overcast days are the best because of nice smooth light. It would've been very good for David's portraits and what you were trying to do with them.

I'd like to see the final project.

yeah... I don't think i took any pictures outside except for my final project. my teacher was a nazi about washed out skies so i tried to avoid that as much as I could so i didn't have to fuck around with filters and shit... ended up working my ass off trying to boost contrast instead because my negatives were really flat :/ so i had to screw with filters regardless.

yeah, interior light is a bitch, i never got it to work quite right...

I think i'll try to post my final project or something

If I continue photography at northern/get access to the darkroom, i'll be sure to test that out. And I'll see what I can about my project. You shoudl post yours too or some of your photos at least, I'm really curious to see your style.

Yeah I would really like to post some but I'd want to post my final peice, and that'd be a lot of scanning. Sometime if you want you can come over and I'll show it to you.

Haha, BSing deeper meanings... I did that aaalll through high school art. I wonder if the teachers know about it and are just humoring us?

This is a very cool shot, nonetheless. I like the shadows.

i've never had the chance to bs the meaning of my art to a teacher before. i think i may have taken too much liberty with it throughout the class:/ Either way it was entertaining :] and thank you very much (:
