Oh, the Fun of 35mm Photography

I'm taking ART 251 this semester, and it's proving to be a very expensive class. I lucked out on finding a manual camera from my grandma that I can use, but spent over a $130 on other equipment we'll be using to develop and enlarge our black and white photographs. Today we learned how to develop and process our film, which I'm excited to do for the first time--though it seems extremely monotonous and daunting.

I spent the last couple of days shooting and ended up filling two rolls of film, mostly on pictures of my dog and the surrounding areas of our apartment complex, including the pretty cool abandoned prison next door.

Here's some pictures of the camera my grandma lent me for the class. It's a Canon, which I'm not that crazy about, but It'll do.

I'll be processing my rolls sometime this week, and will probably put up some pictures of the process later. For now, it's time to work on my wire sculpture.
