Photography 101.

I finally finished my very first photography project, so no more will you be seeing an overabundance of my self portraits. The images seemed to be a hit during critique, but for their content only. My technical skills are still lacking. After tearing my first roll of film and then subsequently exposing the entire roll to daylight I was sure nothing else could go wrong. Right. I love how delusional I can be sometimes.
The second roll of film made its way to the dark room and even went so far as to be developed......with an unsufficient amount of chemicals.
Still, I managed to use several of the images to print. Albeit with some serious filter use and much trial, error, burning and dodging. Of course during the printing process the chemicals expired and I was not aware of this considering it was the very first time I ever printed and secondly because it wasn't my responsibility to keep up with the chemicals. There is a lab assistant to do that and answer all of our novice questions.
At any rate...despite the technical problems I am rather happy with the content of my photographs. I recieved the highest of compliments during critique when my instructor and other class mates compared this image of me in the tub to Gustav Klimpt's painting style. Wow! was I ever flattered.
If you are unfamiliar with Gustav Klimpt please check this out. He is my favorite painter ever.
