these are my first real color prints! (the first project didnt count cause it was a dumb project) its really exciting though. this project was all about color. we had to do monochrome color, desaturated colors, complementary colors, and saturated colors.

my favorites are the first two. im just not a big fan of bright saturated colors at the moment i guess. that's it for now!

so school has been extremely busy this quarter, it's been hard to keep up with everything. i learned how to print color photos for film though! exciting. the image below isnt one that i printed, but it is going to be part of the next project i do have to print (its due monday :/!) i finished shooting today, so i'll be printing all day tomorrow.

and this handsome young fellow (i named him claude) was my first assignment in printmaking. it's a print from a linoleum block, which is a relief process. im really enjoying printmaking, asside from the massive amounts of bleeding fingers i have gotten from it already. but, just like color film photography, it is very labor intensive and time consuming. lots and lots of trial and error.

well that's it for now, i hope i can update again once i finish printing my next photo project.

i shot some more film last sunday and finally got it developed today. i wasn't even sure if the 35mm camera i used was in working condition. turns out, it is! i loove the photos i got from this camera, they're so crisp and clean. and the film i ended up using (its been in my moving trunk for god knows how long) was beautiful. the colors are so vibrant, i love it! i liked a bunch from the roll, but these are my three favorite.

i also shot another roll using the mamiya, just to get some more practice with the focusing. i think it went better this time. i think anyways haha. here's some from that roll:

i took some photos the other day using my mamiya. im still trying to get used to it. for some reason the focusing has been an issue. im still worried that it might be the camera, and really just hoping its not me. these two are my favorite from the shoot though. i think they turned out nice. i've recently been shooting into the sun a lot. i love how it can completely change a photo. you never know what its going to look like until you get them developed. its really exciting haha. im such a nerd.
