photography - telephone


Picture of an old fashioned dial telephone. Whole things a bit out of focus, could do with being a little sharper around the edges. I think it was one of those where the shutter had to be operated arbitrarily due to a low level of light, so there was an inevitable shake factor as i wasn't using a tripod. Could have done with being exposed a little less as i feel the whole things a little bit on the dark side. One or two nice textures coming out of the background as the light hits the folds in the paper.

photography - tester

Black and white test strip of photographs taken in the studio, some ok ones, although i did encounter a problem when transfering the film onto the development reel. Only one or two appear to be damaged and it was only a first attempt. Quite like the idea of studio shots and the control and contrast you get from minimising and directing the light source. For my photography elective i shall be shooting around the building site i work on. There's a huge variety of matter and interesting light sources, not to mention the characters that work there.
