Swan Lake (Photos)

Some BBF photos from a while ago. This past weekend was quite fun. Saturday night I told the roller derby girls I'd DJ at Little Fish, Huge Pond. I was quite excited/nervous because I've never DJed in my life. Well, maybe that isn't true. I DJed in the fifth grade at Enterprise Village. Everyone had to apply for a job, and I was hired as a DJ for the radio station. Lately, I have been up for some challenges. Yesterday I had an amazing brunch, followed by a walk around Winter Park. I got to shoot some film and just enjoy being outside.

Blackbird, Fly

I bought a Blackbird, Fly twin-lens reflex camera about a couple of months ago. I honestly don't remember when it was, but this is the first chance I've had to scan some photos in. Jeff and Ivan have been playing around with the camera at the farmer's market and at the air show we went to.

The photos I scanned are pretty over exposed and took some work to balance out. I'll have to do some test scans of the other roll of film and see how those turned out. Maybe its too bright to use ISO 400 film? Well, that just means I'll have to play around with it more and find out. I kind of like when things don't work out perfectly, because I like figuring out what went wrong.

New York Photos (part tres)

How does it get so late in the day? At least I made some time to paint tonight. These are a few black and white photos from New York. The aircraft photos are from the Intrepid Museum. The shear size of the aircraft carrier was amazing, and I don't think its that large compared to modern ships. The SR-71 Blackbird was the most exciting plane for me. Even though I'd seen a couple out in California, I was still giddy when I saw it sitting up there. I am in love with the shape of it.
