Fillip Portrait
Good ol' Fil, our class president and good friend, came into my
room one night complaining that he needed a picture of himself
for something or rather. I told him that's great cause I still
need pictures for my photography project! Unfortunately, when
we were finished shooting I realized my camera's setting were
still set for a previous project. So all the pictures turned out
really orange and with an incredible amount of noise. I did everything
I could to remove the color cast, but to no avail. So decided
to go black and white and just kept playing with it. In the end
it turned out really well. This was the photo that opened my eyes
to the power of dodgning and burning since I had never really
played much with that previously.

Intro to
Photography Class
Finally, with the move to college here my Freshman year, I had
the opportunity to take a photography class. I seemed, however,
to be cused with bad luck from the first day of class right up
till the last day. It was really unfortunate since I had looked
forward to it for so long. For instance a variety of factors kept
me from being able to acquire a film camera. So I always had to
borrow someone else's after they were done, usually giving me
only a half hour to shoot an entire roll or two of pictures. Things
picked up slightly once we moved to digital since I could use
my own camera.
