a friend sent me a Kodak ultra disposable camera to shoot with for a fun project...
It is ISO800 (which I never shoot at), f/11 (unheard of for me!), has a flash that goes off whenever it wants to (a what?) and oh yeah...it's film! (huh?)
So forgive the next 25 uploads which will be the unedited crooked, slightly weirdly framed (the viewfinder doesn't line up with the shot exactly) experiment in using a disposable! lol...
i just seem to like crows...
The final version. Note the sketched look to the lightpost, the walls of some of the buildings, and the main tree trunk.
Fiber based paper curls a lot, and my internegative would not lie flat, even when squished between two sheets of glass, binder clips around the edges, and me holding down as many edges as i could. The tree trunks are blurry at the top as a result...I had to pick an area that was going to get fuzzy. In future, I will probably use RC paper until the final print. I might shoot on fiber and enlarge a medium-fromat sized print, which would get lots more 'fiber' showing in the final print. Lots to try here.
Note this series of shots is made using my P&S digicam, and so lots of lighting and paper curl artifacts are apparent.
This is a process I learned from a book called "Hand Colouring and Alternative Darkroom Processes" by Andrew Sanderson.
Playing around with exposure and aperture - both photos allowed a
similar amount of light, even though in one the snow is less blurry
due to a shorter shutter time.
Exposure: 0.04 sec (1/25)
Aperture: f/3.2
Testing out my new Lomo'Instant Wide camera on a sunny day, I need to remember to turn off the flash before each photo. And to set the focusing distance.
Seen in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. My walk through the French Quarter started in a torrential downpour. I spent the first half hour standing under an overhang waiting for the rain to let up and observing the street scene. My previously posted hydrant photo was also taken during this wait.
We sat and ate at restaurant Marina in Side, Turkey, and I noticed the lightpost with the vines hanging around it. It was almost like the lightpost itself was a part of the plant

Aurora was the first city in the United States to use electric lighting to light the entire city and was thereby named, The City of Lights.
This is one of the many original antique lightposts.

Light posts on the facade of the Royal Palace of Madrid. Palacio Real de Madrid is the official residence of the Royal Family, but they don’t actually live here. Today, the Palace is mostly used for state ceremonies. Right next to the Royal Palace is Madrid’s Cathedral that was completed in 1994!

“Edison failed 10, 000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times.” by my fave author Napoleon Hill
This another 'lucky scratch'. I don't think the negative is actually scratched, but that commet and stars comes from the way I scanned the image. I used my 3mp digital camera to take a picture of the negative on a lightboard, with a pane of glass on top to keep it flat. The mark is no doubt a smudge on the glass. But for me, it makes the picture.
Shot on 16mm Copex microfilm, ASA 25 or so. Developed in a Beutler style developer for low contrast. The camera is a Minolta-16 (not the same as the Minolta-16 P). The 16 is in fact what the Kiev 30 was copied from, and is almost identical in function. I bought some filters for it off ebay, thinking they'd fit my 16P. I was wrong, but the seller happened to find the camera the filters belonged to, and threw it in for free. Other than a cracked viewfinder glass, it seems to be functioning perfectly.
