Hard Times...

Posted by Codejoy Wed, 02 Jul 2008 15:32:00 GMT

You know, its like that time of year where all the fit-hits-the-shan so to speak and crap just goes to hell in a handbasket. Everyone has these times of year, perhaps sometimes even more than once a year unfortunately. Its just hard times I guess, and in such times I turn to things that make me happy. Like my beloved Seagull TLR camera.

The odd thing about it is, it was purchased off Ebay and I realize I have no clue who the person who sold this camera was, and why someone would sell such a fine camera. Then I wonder if it was that persons hard times, like did I inherit their hard times? Or help them by purchasing this lovely camera in their hard times? I dunno...just the random crap I think I guess.

End of the semester

I learned a lot in the photography class I took this semester. Primarily how to make a good print on both Resin Coated (RC) paper and Fiber Base paper (FB). To me there is something very special about making a picture by hand from start to finish. From the moment you click the shutter, to developing the negative to the enlarging process to even pressing and mounting the final print. Here is my final project, as to which the teacher said it was one of the best final projects he has seen in a photo I class. Mission accomplished. I am now actively working on my next goal.

For your viewing pleasure (you photogs)

It's photography, it's new york city, it's from a cool guy whom I had the pleasure of meeting...and the little video has a cool soundtrack. Have fun: NYC Street Studio Video
