say 'ello to my little friend

hello darlings! since no one else is blogging lately, i figured i should liven up the party a little with some grand news about my life.

meet my new cannon rebel x SLR film camera:
yes yes, i still have, LOVE and use my glorious nikon DSLR that the parents got my for christmas, but i just took up a film photography class and i needed a good camera for it. i figured this would be a fun investment anyways and didn't feel too bad spending the money on it. plus, it's a cannon and cannons have always held a special place in my heart :) (okay, okay, i totally looked EVERYWHERE for a nikon SLR but i COULD NOT FIND ONE that was under 150 dollars... mehh..)

so anywho, the class i'm taking is a black and white film class and i'm learning how to develop my own film and print my own photographs- WITHOUT any use of the computer.. crazy, i know.

this picture above is an example of a contact sheet that you make everytime you shoot a roll of film. You basically just copy all of your negatives onto one sheet so you can get a better idea of the pictures that turned out. all of these are kinda crappy since it was just a test roll but next week i'm shooting landscapes so i am sure to have some pretty pretty pictures for all of you! and if any of you like any of the pictures that i post on here, just let me know and i can make a large copy of it for you!

k, time for ALL OF YOU to blog about something... the parents last cruise, sam's new go-kart, crabbing in seattle?! the possibilites are ENDLESSSSSSSS

xoxo, leesh
