So, I did my hair and I put make up on, and I took MORE photos. I really like how they came out, too.
Keeps my out of troube ;)

I am light, I am light








Basically, more photos in the same spot in the same light. Inspired, right? Ha.


Fun, though, if you take out the nettle stings - but that's my own fault for crawling under barbed wire fences.

Sunday

A few friends came over today, and after the sun disappeared from the garden we migrated to the field opposite my house. The gorgeous Emilie put on some make up and her scarf on her head so John and I took some photos. Woul dhave been nice if the sun had stuck around, but it was annoyingly cloudy today.





Also a quick snap from Emilie doing the "YEAH VOGUE LOOK AT MUH HAIR".





I took a few photos from this afternoon on my AE-1, so I'll try to get them developed tomorrow with whatever else is at the beginning of the film (and whatever I do to use the end up!).

more self portraits!

So once again I took advantage of the gorgeous sunshine, and took some photos on the roof just outside of my bedroom.
I wouldn't necessarily call any of these photos very ~creative or original, but as a friend said (hello, Imogen!) taking photos of yourself enables you to learn an awful lot, and it seems a shame not to do this whilst the light and opportunity is about. Again, fun too!

These are the ones I have edited so far and probably the ones that came out the best.
Used PS7 for colour and contrast, and that's mostly all the edits that have been done aside from a few marks.

Also, thanks for the comments and support so far people!

Camera remote!



I finally bought a cheap camera remote from Amazon. It's not the best out there but it works, and for £5 including postage I'm not complaining (er, yet). I snapped some rather contrived shots over the last few days as fun and tests to get used to it.








They're relatively crap shots (at least, the last I'm not too fond of, haha), but you know, I enjoyed the sunshine and having fun the most! It's not worth it if you're not having fun, either :) The top and middle two were taken late afternoon on my roof, and the other two outside in the garden (as you might guess).
I fully intend to be more creative/less contrived in the near future, but gosh, not today!
