Ugh it really angers me that I can't type above this picture to start But anyway I'm starting my 365 extremely late but oh well. Today I am no longer afraid of the selection tool. I actually am quite in love with it as you'll notice.
I took the ones with the leaves in my garage. I realized that I make everything really contrasted.

These are pipes in my basement. There's a color version which is kind of cool looking because I painted the pipes a while ago and they are really bright colors but I messed up with the selection tool and there's two shades of green on the wall.




This one probably would have been cooler if there was sufficient enough lighting in my basement to get a clear picture.
I found this awesome looking book in my basement. There's paint and water stains all over the basement floor and it's unfinished so that's why it's all grungy. It's excellent for pictures though and adds great texture.
I think I like the black and white version better but I'm not sure.

Yes, I take corny holiday pictures of my cat.



I wanted to bring these in tomorrow and do that thing where you can make things in color and other things in black and white because my crappy editing software doesn't do that but I can't come tomorrow :[. Oh well. I bet I could get Feek in one of those cat calenders but that would be horribly pathetic of me haha.

New Digital Stuff





I wanted to do some horror photography so yea. These were all taken in my basement. I quite liked how they turned out. Model is Jade, the same girl in the Jacobsburg park darkroom photos.

Grandma :D


I took some film of her like this but more centered and whatnot. I didn't take as many pictures as I would have liked to during break and it saddens me. And I use tree backgrounds far too much.

Cancer

My sister, being amazing as she is, shaved her head today because our grandmother was just recently diagnosed with agressive breast cancer and will start chemo next Wednesday. So I decided to take some portraits, these two are in digital but I will have film ones too.















































I really like how the sepia one turned out.



Also, I'm extremely frustrated with this whole self portrait thing but this is a digital one I took that has the same type of theme as the film ones. I really think that the film ones turned out horrible though.. but yea. here it is.

Shutter Speed. fun times.

Shutter speed controls how fast the shutter opens and exposes light to the sensor and film. The longer the shutter is open, the brighter the picture will be. The shorter the shutter is left open, the darker the picture will be. Shutter speed is noted in seconds such as 1/100, and 1/60. Also, you must take into consideration the speed of the object you are taking a picture of. The faster the object moves, the faster you have to make the shutter speed.
