A Lovely Mistake.

This photo &print was used in my first semester film portfolio. It was a lovely fuck-up on my camera's part. While winding the film to the next exposure or whatever, I'm guessing the reel got stuck &it created this. It actually happened on afew different rolls, but this one was probably my favorite. The two just seem to really flow together.

Now, all the scrathes, those were done on purpose. Because of how poorly I treated my film last semester, it was fairly scratched up. So, another student had suggested to me to scratch the shit out of the negative if I was going to use it. That terrified me. Instead, I scratched up a clear sheet that usually held my prints. I loved the result when it was layed on top of the negative. Unfortunately I tossed the clear puece &wasn't able to duplicate the result again.

But, this one print luckily turned out nearly perfect, even if it was hard to work with.

 

This is the exact darkroom print.

It browned slightly after being scanned. It is now hidden inside of a portfolio box to prevent further browning. :[[
