I need to work on my Patience!

Still working on our cyanotypes.....
Photography is my last class of the day and being that I normally tend to be scattered brained, tired, and multi tasking. This time I was printing digital copies, talking, texting, and thinking about 30 different thoughts.
The first print I took out there I forgot to take notice to what time it was all together. The second print I took out there I made sure to look at my phone to see what time it was but forgot it when I looked to see how long the print had been outside. Needless to say when I finally took my prints outside and managed to bring them in and wash them off, when they were dry I learned I had one print that I left outside too long making it to dark, and the second print I didn't leave out long enough making it a little light. Also, when I went to rinse the cyanotype for the second print I must have let the water pressure come on way to high, or stuck the print under the sink before I turned the water on and I believe that is what caused the splatter. Other than that I have no clue as to how it got there. Here are a few pictures. :)

Photography Assignment #2

For project #2 we had to get into groups and do environmental self portraits. Needless to say we ended up just going to a random place near campus and taking pictures. I took pictures of my partner around campus with his camera, and I had my pictures taken at design archives. (It was almost as much fun as studio lighting day.... if you cant tell im being very sarcastic)


























Oh how I love studio lighting days... NOT...


When we were working on studio lighting we all had to get into groups and take pictures of 9 different lighting uses. Front, Side, Under lighting, Two light sources, diffused, Top lighting.. etc. etc. I can't remember all of them right now but needless to say we all had to suffer through getting our pictures taken. Some enjoyed it while others like me, or maybe just me... hated it. It is so obvious in the pictures that I look like I am having soooo much fun. :) I would add these and the project 2 assignment pics I might add soon to the 365 self portrait series I'm working on but I didn't take the photos. Take notice to how "happy" I look that we had to sit for pictures... :)
