My cheap still life studio

Today I just got a new window for my room, it used to be split in two pieces but now we put a new one in and now I have this good window with a lot of light. Today we harvested some vegetables and there was this big cabbage that I wanted to photograph some parts of. So i decided to make a small still life studio on my desk. Today I only took few shots but i will definitely do this again.


here is both a post of the set up as well as the outcome. I did not use a tripod because I have not been able to buy a batter one that I can put the camera directly above the subject. 

My first exhibition

Well, I have finally managed to scan the photos from my exhibition since last April. I just uploaded them to my flickr, they will go to the webpage soon.

The theme for this exhibition is the streets in March. I used only film in this project and I shot it with my Olympus OM2 with Ilford HP5 at iso 400. I wanted to show the coldness of March. I also enlarged the photos in an agfa enlarger on Ilford paper.

I have for a while wanted to try something like this, photographing the street by film and specially when its snowing. I just love the way the snow is on the photos, it makes them look a bit grainier  and more street.

I just want to make it clear that photoshop was not used in any of the photos and the frame around the photos is the film frame so they have not been cropped at all.
