Just found one of these bad boys going for $150.00. I put down $15 to keep it in layaway. I will probably pay it all off on 8/26. I like this sucker cause it can handle the weather a bit more than my Rebel TI. I can't believe what people are trading their film cameras in for to buy inferior digitals for 8 to 10x the price. I joked with the store ( Read more... )

Can't sleep so scanning my work with Becky and ms_maleficent. I can see a trend here....My work is starting to look like my work, dig? I have been pursuing an idea on how I wanted things to look in my work- tones, the feel of objects, etc. and I am getting there. Actually, I would say on the way to what I thought was going to be my look I have naturally settled ( Read more... )

Well, they finally fixed my lights in the basement so I can get on with the developing...I got I believe 9 rolls or so waiting to be developed. I will talk more about those shoots later ( Read more... )

Well, as I said before I put the shot of bgirl420 up on 2 forums. The response I got was pretty much anticipated- "it's seems a bit soft," "I don't know if I like the panties, they conflict with the coat," yadda yadda. Nothing that had not occurred to me and the softness was what I was going for so I felt fine with it. Now softness in focus as a mistake is ( Read more... )

Posted the same shot in two photocritiquing forums. Should be a hoot to see what they say about the shot. I have posted it previously in my journal for a critique. I am just wondering if they say the same things you (plural sense) said in response to the shot- fuzzy as was shot wide open, with intentional blurring.

Here it is:

Has this happened to you? You find a model you really want to work with and bang; then you find out they are 17. This ruins everything. It is damned weird to film a 17 year old with Mommy's cold eyes on your back. It is like a constant prayer in my head, "Please god don't let her look too hot...or my Black ass is going to jail ( Read more... )

Okay, currently trying to set up a shoot with ms_maleficent and have buddhax come out as well. buddhax seems interested but I have not heard from ms_maleficent yet so I am unsure if this will be a go or no. The perk is that megalomaniac83 will be coming out for this no matter what; so I get to reprise some stuff and create anew with her. I wrote down a few concepts I want to try to play up at work for ( Read more... )

Okay, here's the deal, late.
lissfury and I had a shoot, I believe on June 5th. Anyway, about 10 minutes before the shoot lissfury gives me a call, her dog has run away but she found her and will probably be about 20 or so minutes late. No problem, a cancellation, I got problems; a little late from an understandable situation, no problem. lissfury shows up, we smile at ( Read more... )

Looks like I am on schedule. I will be able to mail the disc of all megalomaniac83's images tomorrow and if lucky I will be able to mail the same to lissfury the following day or the day after. On the shooting front, Nikki had to cancel, she was sick and it was the hottest day of the year. I really am getting tired of all these cancellations however, there have been ( Read more... )

I just finished bgirl420's negatives. I will give her a disc of images tomorrow. I hope to finish or at least get halfway thru with megalomaniac83's negatives tomorrow as well. Then I will follow this up by finishing the Lissfury's images. Some really nice stuff off of the 3rd roll there. But I will talk of that later ( Read more... )
