I did goof in what I thought was a cool way on this photo:

I had my white balance set wrong. It took me some time to figure out why my shots seemed so blue. This is the same shot right out of the camera:

Not sure what one I like better...

I know what you mean...I kinda like the blue one!

What causes so many shipwrecks there? Is the weather that violent?

Neglect mostly, the water is very calm here.

Screwing around with the point and shoot. I don't really ever mess with shooting in B&W, so I figured I'd give it a go.

So I gave developing my own film a go. All and all for my first time it turned out ok. My two main issues were:

First off, I got into a hurry, and when I did my first wash with water I forgot to drain the water back out before I put in my developer. I could not figure out how I poured out twice as much developer as I poured in. Then it hit me and I said to myself "Oh crap..." But I felt I might as well see what I come up with. (The 12 shot film mag had jammed on me while we were flying. So I had to pull the dark side out and unjam it. So this film was suspect anyways.)

Secondly, I thought my developing tank for the 4x5 sheet film was a 1L tank. Turns out it's a 1.5L tank so I did not mix up enough developer or blix to fully coat the film. So the middle at the top of the tank got developer (see above) but no blix. But I still got usable negatives out of it. So I'm not off to a bad start.

I don't have access to hot running water at work so I found a little griddle and a stainless steel serving dish. I used the griddle to heat the water and went from there. I have about 10 rolls of 120 film to develop in the next few days. That should go much better.

Doing some more messing around with some more off camera flash. I may retake this photo when I get new lenses put in my sunglasses so they have a cleaner look to them. I think a polarizer would help some too. I'd like to get rid of the stray light in the lenses of the glasses, and have the mouth totally washed out. Taken using a LumoPro LP160
