Computers!!!

All of this week Firefox has been driving me crazy!
I dont know if anyone else is having this problem but Firefox every now and again will just stop responding. I can close it with no problems but then I get a message when I try to open it saying "Firefox is already running, please close the program and try again"
So then onto task manager where the damn thing refuses to be closed by means of "end task"
This gets twice as annoying when I then tell my Laptop to shut down or restart and it completley ignores me...
Maybe I should just turn this into at "things that annoy me" blog, I'll probably end up with a lot more posts that way......

Given up

I have been trying to do my actual photography work.... honest.
I can blame Allan if I fail.
"sorry I didnt get my work in on time but my friend likes to send me youtube videos of animals having weird and unusual sex"
I think thats a perfectly good excuse.

Here are some more pictures :D


All three were done on 5x4 cameras, they are possibly one of the most complicated and fustrating things I've ever come across!!! But I love them because of all the levers and dials and how you load the film in with a magazine that makes a big satisfying clunk, if only they didn't cost me £2 a shot :(



All of the photos are for an abstract breif from college, what do you think?

Catch up

A shot I did when I got bored and decided to go play in the still life studio at college. I couldn't think of anything to shoot so I grabbed the nearest thing, which unsuprisingly was a camera... I had a play with the lighting and kinda liked this set up, I havn't touched it with photoshop as I prefer not to nowadays, helps me practice getting it right first time.
A similar shot to the one above but with a different white balance, thought the sepia effect went nicely with the old camera :D

















First entry, so I thought I'd show you my little cave.

It's actually ptretty tidy for me, its not the most exciting room in the world but it has everything I need really, well apart from a pool and a burger king but thats probably asking a little too much.
Right next post I'll get some pictures for you to have a look at :D
