wicked witch

Shadows from my blinds make me look like I have striped legs. This picture is weird. My feet aren't really this creepy in real life.

film

 So as I mentioned before, I'm in a film photography class at school right now. It's so interesting! But way too expensive. Anyways, that is the main reason why I haven't been posting as much lately. Shooting, developing, and printing takes MUCH longer than shooting, editing, and uploading. Anyways, here are my first three assignments from class.
The first is city/landscape. My teacher was indifferent to these. She didn't say they were great, she didn't say they were awful... just ehh.

The second assignment was portrait. I did my roomie, Taylor. My teacher LOVEEED them and thought they were great..(well all except the middle one with the book). I didn't really like that one either.

The third assignment was self portrait. This was so difficult. I had my boyfriend hold the camera in the position I wanted, but he always ended up moving. This resulted in cutting off my elbows, leaving too much head space, and making me unfocused in about 85% of the pictures. But I managed to print five decent ones! My teacher hasn't critiqued these yet (Tuesday!) but from what she said while I was printing, I think she'll like them... somewhat.

If I get ambition (and a scanner) I will upload some of my best from throughout the semester. Probably not until December though.


UPDATE: (11/1/11) My teacher thought my self portraits were amazing. In fact, best in the class! I got an A and I'm super pumped.

I like this thing. Salem, MA.

apples to apples

Anyone up for some super delicious vegan apple pie with fresh, handpicked apples? This was the first pie I have ever made and it was awesome.

Can't have Columbus without Octoberfest.

fire in the sky

Ugh, posting hiatus. I'm back now! I'm not sure for how long though. This semester I'm taking a film photography class at school and it has been devouring all my "photo time" leaving me with no opportunity to shoot digital... hence the reason why I have NO PICTURES to post lately! Maybe if I get motivation, I'll scan some of my prints and post them (but probably not). In the meantime, I went back home this weekend for Columbus! It was a great time with family and friends.. friends? I guess mainly just family. And the trees were sooo pretty. Can't wait for the leaves to start changing down here.
