Art Studio Class

First image: "What's New With Myspace?"
Second Image: Girl Pastelling

The first image is my friend who doesn't actually take Art Studio as a class but always liked to hang out in the art room with us when we had it. Whenever he got bored he'd always say "What's new with myspace?" and he'd hop on the computer.
Disclaimer: Myspace is evil!

The second image is of my friend working on her pastel work for the class. If I remember correctly she's working on either her landscape drawing which turned out quite well or her self portrait which is shaping out to be even better than her landscape. I'm excited to see how it turns out.

The Hip Hangout


Music club... nuff said.
lol
My friend stole my hat... or I put it on him, both are possible. Music club senior year was pretty slow moving
. I entertained myself by being obnoxious and taking pictures instead of taking part in whatever "deep discussion" was taking place here...pfft

Hanging


This is a medium format shot I took with an extremely old Voigtlander Brilliant. The camera dates back to circa the early 1932
To be honest I'm surprised anything came out at all.
I also used a very very old type of developer and no scheduling whatsoever for the film processing.
All was done in my basement and kitchen.
The skeletons were projects for my senior year Anatomy and Physiology class. Three groups created human skeletons mostly out of model magic. Me and my two parters decided to take on the challenge of piecing together an old sheep skeleton.
Not so easy...
hahaha I had a lot of fun with it anyway and with how degraded the film appears they look relatively realistic.

Fence

This is an infrared image taken with my Canon EOS 20D with a HOYA 72R Infrared Filter.
I'm planning on including this image in my concentration section for my AP Photography submission.

Philadelphia

A dizzying 120 HOLGA image taken in philadelphia.
Figured I needed more film images and this is a recent image I've found to upload.

One of my favorite objects in a nearby abandoned house.
Taken with film, scanned in print, then altered to give it a faux infrared film looking coloration.
Note: this is not an infrared image, there were no IR filters used.

Check this out, it's pretty cool.

If you've got a Flickr account or maybe something else you can create a cool little 3D photo gallery.
Not the best resolution of the image in fullscreen mode but that's what ya get for free online service sometimes. Actually, not the best resolution in small screen mode either, but I know a few people who use it because it's free, convenient, and whatever.

After I took this shot I tried to change the light switch to "On" so i could get the whole juxtaposition thing goin on. I figured it wouldn't budge and i was right besides, I think there's much more of a story to be found if it's in the off position. It just sets more of a downcast mood.

I think this is really funny being that it's in an old abandoned farmhouse.
I guess it was just dumped there after the house was abandoned cause i don't see Farmer Ted on the eliptical surrounded by cows...

When I first approached these I expected them all to be dirty magazines that were amassed by a bunch of teenage guys. However, they turned out to be family magazines and bunches of National Geographic issues.

I found this awesome abandoned farm while driving around my home town. There was so much broken glass and nails on the ground I'm amazed I didn't get my foot stabbed. Thank goodness for boots!
