B & W Photos




I haven't forgotten about my blog. In fact, I think of it often. But when I have time to actually write something, my mind goes completely blank. Well, to solve this problem, I opened my closet and looked for inspiration. I found it in an old bin of black and white photos. One of my favorite classes at Cal was the 8 week summer class on Black and White Photography. I learned to develop my own film, enlarge negatives, "burning", "dodging", and processing prints. It was amazing! Creating my own darkroom and processing lab is on the top of my list of things to do when I'm a millionaire. ;)

Over the course of the class, I directed my lens towards many subjects, but I did my final project on animals at the SF Zoo. Some of the photos from this project can be seen on Facebook.

But perhaps the most meaningful photos were of the critters around the house - Bonnie, Rexy, and Molly. Lincoln was not in our lives...he wasn't even born yet!

Enjoy these negatives...I know I did when I dug them up. Click on the photo to make it bigger.

**Bonnie is the doggie in the pool. Rexy is the doggie lounging around (RIP Rexy). And there is 1 picture of Molly the cat (RIP Molly).**
