Bittersweet

I went to an open lab this weekend to process a couple rolls of film to get ahead. I was processing a roll of blurred motion and a roll of frozen motion. Unfortunately, one of the rolls did not move through the camera as I was taking the pictures so the film never got exposed and it was all blank when I processed it. However, my second roll, the roll with the frozen motion, came out AWESOME. Its the best, most consistent one I have had all year.

My favorite photos are the floating skateboard in the second row down, the middle picture on the third row (another skateboard picture), the last two pictures in the fifth row (swish of the basket and a good basket that Curtis made) and the first picture in the second to last row (my brother with a ball floating in the air).

"Progress, Not Perfection"

I was worried about the film I shot this week so I went to an open lab and developed it early. Just as I was afraid, I overexposed and underexposed a lot of my images. Oh well, progress not perfection. That's what my photo teacher always says (By the way, my photo teacher is quite established and had her work displayed all over the world-wiki Darylin Rowan-or maybe its Darilyn...). I know what I did wrong so next time I wont make the same mistakes.

The negatives are actually a lot better than they scanned in---the really dark ones actually have usable images. So, I am pretty confident that I will still get the prints I need out of them.
