April 27, 2008

So on Saturday afternoon I decided to go up to Columbia University to develop pictures with Alexis at the schools darkroom. Alexis has keys so we went in after hours with a six pack of beer and some snacks. I thought I could get out of there by 10pm....HA! We were developing until almost 4 in the morning and I only printed 5 pictures. Now I remember why I love digital so much! Ha!
Anyway, the photos I developed all came from my Yashica-D camera from the 1950's. I took photos last summer in Williamsburg and most recently in the LA River in downtown Los Angeles. Here are the 6 photos that came out the best!

Molly in Williamsburg. This was the only photo I printed from the Williamsburg roll. There were others that were great but this was the absolute stand out. Definitely the best photo on the roll. Only to be compared with my photo of Jorge in the LA River.
Molly

Jorge in the LA River. Best photo from the LA River Roll. So who wins? Jorge vs. Molly?

Wow, Paulie and Jorge look so badass in black and white!

I am heading to the mountains on Thursday and won't be back until the 8th! Can't wait to work on the mosaic again...do you think we can squeeze in another tile-paint-a-thon before I leave?

I love that pic of me and the old car

I agree, Joc, the Molly Shot is super!

I love the Molly shot! And of course the whole thing was not planned. The car just happened to be there and BAM! A great artistic moment.

Am I going to be the sole dissenter? I think the Jorge is the better photograph. I'm drawn to the range of tones you got and the symmetry.

Can't make paint party! I'm chained to the studio until May 5. Then I'm free for art projects galore.

I think Jorge & Molly are going to have to have a DJ faceoff on the 4th of July!

I have to agree with Paulie -- Molly is gorgeous and the picture is beautiful, but how can anyone compete with the World Famous DJ Jorge Casillo in a dirty ally? He's really in his element.

Great pictures! In all my photography classes we used black & white almost exclusively and sometimes I really miss it. I might bring out my really old slr soon too.... in fact, I think there might even be a roll of film in it still from a few years ago....hmmm

I agree that the one of Molly is the best though.
