Exposure Latitude Attempt 1

  Exposure Latitude Attempt 1

Contact sheet 1


This was my first roll of film ever, so not all of it worked in the first place. I did have huge pieces missing from this roll which I now know was me not paying attention to a special light on my camera that tell me the image won't expose on the ISO setting I'm on.
I got these images by my friend holding the 18% grey card at me in my focus spot. Then I would change my settings, have her set it down, then I would nap the photo. Rinse repeat.

I was able to get half of the project done, but by the time I exposed this I couldn't re take because of the snow on the ground and how cold the weather was turning.

In the end my stubborn nature got me at least one good image.

Final print


The Glossy paper really likes to curl and reflect me in it so apologize for the strange angles. 
This final print took a lot of help and patients. Many people I spoke too only did 10-15 seconds for some of there exposures really confusing me on mine for the longest time. Thanks to David Knight help, I was able to pull this image out. 
In the end I needed 65 seconds on filter 3 + extra 5 seconds on filter 4 in the projector.

The image in my camera I'm not sure of the settings because without the missing film pieces the numbers no longer match and make me unsure the exact settings. All I know I know for sure is that this was at 400 ISO.

Julianne Laurie Pinhole Camera Week-2

Image
NEGATIVE 1. Self Portrait: Image details:      -box camera (  Middle and side pieces. )      - 3 second exposure     - 4:30pm Direct sun light This image is my self portrait. I choose this set up because I was hoping by having the two images on the side of the camera I would make one big image. I did it this way because placing the paper and wrapping didn't work, the paper kept falling when I walked out.  POSITIVE   NEGATIVE  2. "Where the Eyes cannot go " Image details:      - Box camera     - Wrapped back piece, held by serious tape.     - 8 min exposure       -3:30pm In the classroom, This image is based on the idea that you cannot see in a creator head perfectly. When people are creating stories, they know every detail, down to the cloud in the sky, the the stars position and every nook and cranky we can't quiet see perfect. We never see the pages clearly, but to t...

Depth of Field attempt 1

Image
  Depth of  field Originally I understood depth of field as two focus points. So when I did this project I misunderstood and did this image first. I didn't do a proper contact contact sheet for this image because I had a good idea how long this image would take after the first image. // In the top left hand corner is this image//  image: a  85 seconds with filter 3 + 10 at filter 4.  35mm lens Image: b 85 seconds, filter 3 + 15 second at filter 4 35mm lens These images do have a twin it was suppose to go with it, but I never developed it so I only have it as film because after I was corrected of what was required. Film here:  I did do another attempt where I also thought this was depth of field but I was wrong. In the end I developed the image because I really like the shot and how it turned out.  Image a:  60 seconds filter 3 3 + 5 seconds filter 4 35mm image: b                     ...

Exposure Latitude Attempt 2 Best One- Mark me please

Image
 For my second attempt at exposure, I used a more simple set up that had true blacks in the image so when I printed the image I knew exactly how dark the blacks should be. Contact sheet My contact sheet really through me for a loop a for time, mostly just the negatives and how everything is backwards. So light is dark, dark is light. So this was just a really big challenge in understanding what was what and how to keep track of everything in the negatives and in the contact sheet.  Film Final image 17.5 filter 3 + 2 seconds filter 4 For the final image, I was so, so upset. I dropped the film on accident when I came back the next day to try and get my boarders fixed. So now I ruined the film and got a meh image. But it is what it is. I was really sad that this image had scratches on it now from me dropping it, but thing happen. Nothing I can change, the scratches are bad enough that I don't know if I can fix them all without them being noticed.  I didn't have time to retak...
