First Steps

Today I dug my Holga camera out of my dorm room to give to Glenn so that he can calibrate it. The goal is to find out my Holga's shutter speed and aperture size.


I also have a pack of filters which might mean making color Holga prints on black and white film and color paper, depending on if I can get it to work.

More information about Holga Calibration when we get this to work.
Keep checking back.

The Beginning of Something Exciting

Glenn and I met through the student organization Photo House at RIT. Glenn is a Imaging and Photographic Technology major and I am a Fine Art Photography major. We have vey different outlooks on the world, design, and photography so naturally it made sense for us to collaborate. Hopefully we will do something interesting, so please stick around and watch as I (and hopefully he, eventually) document it all as we work together with technical skills and artistic vision to produce work.



So Far:

We have plans to do things such as, use a Holga Camera to produce technically sound studio photography.
Make Cameras, with and without home made lenses.
Make Light modifiers
Play with home made filters
In general, we just want to play with everything we can, Photographically.
