more FILM shot with a PENTAXslr 35 mm.... be still my heart :(

... and developed by ME in an actual DARK ROOM....

a contact sheet... this should be in a museum.

piano...

i colored this in myself - back in 1999 - at the time it seemed cool, now it's so dated!

i long for the days of dark rooms and chemical smells, contact sheets and rusty projectors... it took me a LONG time to become halfway accustomed to digital....i'm still not there, but i'm trying!

20: canadian summer

taken in 1999 - my first official day of summer i once spent the summer in toronto, studying photography at BSS - the boarding school my mother attended when she was in high school. if any of you are fans of John Irving, his novels frequently reference BSS -

The Bishop Strachan School. Canada's Oldest Day and Boarding School For Girls.

currently I am reading The Fourth Hand, have any of you read it? John Irving weaves an incredible story, never fails, but I find his themes and ideas sometimes weak... but he was born on March 2nd, so I don't have much criticism, him being a fellow pisces and all!

can't resist
