First Project

The assignment was to take pictures of the same object for the entire roll- but each picture had to be different.

Old news and Good news.

I took and printed this picture last year. I still can't get over how much I love it.

Blah.

So I haven't put much of my work up here. Mostly because I haven't liked it. Also because once I turned my prints in I wasn't sure where to get them after that to scan them in.
Photo Two proved just as frustrating as Photo One.
I rarely took joy in my work and often felt like I was just wasting my time, wasting class time, wasting the teacher's time. It was painful. I love photo, but I don't feel like I can take anything worth looking at. When I get C-41 film and take it on my own time and have Fred Meyer develop it, I love the pictures. But I don't seem to be able to develop it the way I want by myself or enlarge the prints the way I wish them to look.

Let's Funny?/ Let's weird.

I don't like this one as much as the other two... but there is a story behind it. A few of my friends and I have noticed that all of our houses have some crazy looking rooster in the kitchen as decoration. The one in my house is ceramic, in another's house it is copper, but either way: crazy rooster. So this picture is a bit more of an inside joke I guess. Though, depending on your humor maybe it is funny to you too.

My dog. My dad's hand. He had been helping me take a couple pictures (that I ended up not using because I liked this one better) and our dog kept getting in the way and placing herself right in front of the lense. My dad came over to attempt to move her but ended up playing with her a little bit and with my eyes still focused through the camera, I snapped a shot.

This is the picture I orginially intended as my main print for the project. And as it should be. Titled " Angry duck".
