Out and About

So I'm still having issues with the light leaking in through the back casing. Three rolls of film and barely any are good. Lots of great shots, just lines going through all of them. Looks like I'm going to have to take the camera in to the shop.

Night Study

Taken around the city and atop a few of the many parking garages in Detroit. Wish I could have gotten a picture of the security guards that kicked me out for taking pictures "without permission". Something told me with the sour attitude they had, they wouldn't have been very good models anyway...


Right after I took this one, a car drove up. This vehicle was the one that complained to security that I was "photographing them".


Not sure why, but against my better judgement I decided to post this one anyway.








These next few have a strange feeling to them. I was testing different special effect lens.




Baseball

On the corner of Michigan and Trumbull there once stood a monument to America's greatest pastime. It is now a vacant sandlot. That doesn't stop the boys from continuing the tradition of fast pitch and wood bats.











Aestival Festival

Out in the middle of nowhere. It took me a few rolls of film to realize that the lines and white areas were caused by a leak in the casing of my camera.









Just beyond the horizon: trash mountain.





First Attempts

These were taken in an industrial area of my neighborhood. Despite the imperfections, I was pleased with how they turned out.











I get really excited about 50's/60's style lettering. So retro.
