I would like you to know this is straight out of camera: no cropping, no tweaking at all.

Eh. Len found a pair of glass paned French doors which are very classic and plain. I was trying for something to show them off to good effect, but classic plain doors don’t necessarily lend themselves to artsy photography.

I developed this on Sunday (from Saturday’s photo excursion). Let’s not talk about how incredibly frustrating it is to get film onto the reel when it is 85 degrees and your hands are sweating in the changing bag.

On Saturday, my brother (and his friend Joe), my friend Stef and I went to Jackson (Michigan) to take pictures. Most of what I took are on film (the Mamiya and my dad’s 35mm Nikon), but I did manage to use my digital for a few. This one (and day 330) was taken at a factory we thought was abandoned when we went by earlier in the day, but it turns out not to have been. There were, however, some really great photo opportunities, even if we were disappointed in the lack of dilapidation (there may be a crack in this wall, but no windows were missing).

No Holga Friday. Sorry. I dropped film off, but didn’t have any to pick up. And, because I sort of suck, I didn’t take any pictures on Friday (I’ve been having an epic toothache, and Friday was really bad. Really BAD. Yes, I am seeing a dentist.) This is from Saturday (when I took lots of pictures).

Sometime late last night I had the sudden thought, “oh crap! I didn’t take a picture today!” Then I remembered I did take some pictures. Thank goodness this one mostly worked out.

I took more pictures of the rusty gate. I’m trying to get a decent picture of the whole thing and of the door, both of which are very attractive in their decrepitude. This might be a winter project, as the grass is overly distracting.
