I promised my friend that I would show her some of my photos from a film photography class I took while at college. I finally got around to scanning my photos onto the computer. Fionula
I used a Promaster 2500PK Super 35mm SLR Camera with 50mm Lens for this class, which is an manual film camera. You have to adjust the aperture, shutter speed, and focus yourself. Film photography is fun, yet you have to be patient. Sometimes you will get done with your photos and having waiting a day for them to develop and dry, you will notice that there are only 15 out of 25 photos that are usable. I preferred to use glossy paper than semi-matte.
If there are smudges, white or "pale wispies" on the photos It is mostly because my paper unfornately got exposed to light or me being forgetful, I forgot to wipe my hands off having messing with the chemicals.
The faces are slightly blurred for the privacy of my "subjects". - - -
Candid (A photograph where the person isn't posed or aware of the camera) Focus Blur Leading Lines and Copper Toning Still LifeStop Action(I hated this one. I like all of my assignments but this one gave me the most trouble)Nature(My aperture wasn't correct. There should be more contrast but I forgot about the heat lamp on the kid)Architecture(This one was hard for me. I couldn't get my aperture setting correct)Flash (I have two. I couldn't decide on my favorite. c: I turned one in as extra credit)
Photogram (You set objects on top of the photography paper and turn on the light)
Ionic Personal (It was suppose to be something that someone could see and be like "that's definitely her". And I didn't have my goats but I had my books o3o)
Close Up
Shallow Depth of Field
Special Darkroom effect (Instead of soaking the paper in detok/developer to get the image to appear, I sprayed it on. I almost put too much on. It was bad. cx)
Filter Project (There were different filters put over the light and we had to adjust the time the light was shining on the paper)
Night Photography (For this, I needed a tripod and a cable release, which holds the shutter open until I let go. I put the settings on BLUB and did 3 shots that varied between 10 seconds and 30 seconds)
Test Strips(It's the behind the scene stuff. cx Film photography paper is expensive so you take one sheet and cut it into little pieces. You have to toy with the light and time setting to see if the photo comes out right once you put it in the developer)

This is amazing, Blaziken!! It's so cool seeing all the different kind of photography and settings you had to do O: Thanks for putting this together I always love seeing your pictures

I am glad you think so, Fion! :D It was a pretty fun and interesting class c: If you ever get the chance, you should take Film Photography class. I mean I already understood what I was doing (like the chemical-wise) before I went since I took a photography class in High School. No problem! <3 This finally got me motivated to scan my photos onto to my photo. I rather have a copy of my photos. xD I tend to lose stuff.

These are so unique I love them! I miss doing film photography... but my school switched completely to digital so I can't do it anymore unless I go out and get my.own stuff, which I may try to do eventually.

Thank you <3 I am glad you liked them, Oh really? That is disappointing. At college, we have photography I which is this class and digital photography is photography II. My high school's class photography was just film, not digital. Digital was more in the computer classes.

c: I don't think my high school offers film photography classes, but maybe when I go to college I'll get the opportunity o: You do have a LOT of photos, Blaziken. I mean, look at all the photography threads you had on WCF xD

:D One day, your chance will appear! c; Ahhh. xD Let's not speak of such things. My photography threads are all over. I really should've made a gallery and just stuck with that. I wonder if I should move anything of those over here. Did you move your shop over or back it up already?

these are absolutely GORGEOUS. they have this really eerie feeling, but like... in a comforting and pretty way, if that makes sense. they remind me of my collection of vintage polaroids. very well done!

One day cx xDD well. I think you should!! (make a gallery I mean and move threads over) It can be a fabulous gallery containing all of Blaziken's beautiful photography ;D Oh my, now that you mentioned that... I better move it over (so no, I haven't moved my shop over yet -screeches)

Thank you <3 Oh yes. I always feel like black and white photos have more to them in a sense. There is no color so you can't just be 'ohh pretty colors", you have to observe the photo and take in what is happening and such. Polaroids. I miss those :/ Thank you again, though Goji! I appreciate your review/comment (:
;D Don't lose hope Fion! Eh. That is going to be such a big thread but I should do it. My internet has been acting funny. (Like I am at my uncle's house right now. So... I will save the codes on google chrome for now and then transfer everything over. FION. xD How could you forget about your shop? ahaha

^^" Yeah it'll be quite a giant and scroll-y thread but I think it'd be really cool o: and maybe layout-wise you could put the newest photos at the top and the oldest towards the bottom? So like whenever you have new pictures you can just put them at the top. Just a suggestion idk I hope your internet gets better. I hate bad wifi ;-; right now I'm having issues with this game that's not working on my Mac -_- I was thinking about it earlier this week but just didn't have the time!! But now I've transferred it over and it's under serious construction because I'm been thinking about using a new color palette~
EDIT: Oh my gosh I just learned that the official Warriors artwork can no longer be used for graphics since we're on WCRP and not WCF o_O guess I'll have to remake all my banners...

It will be great. xD Ohhh. That is a good idea ^^; Newest at the top and oldest at the bottom. That would work according and I can have a place for links when I post other threads.
I hate my internet. I hope the wifi had college is good. I have to move back into college next Sunday on the 21st.
Oh yeah. I've heard about that. It's okay ^^; I can always supply you with my Mika photographs. And deviantart has some nice stock images.
Fion, I really want to remake one of my old clans .-. Either Emeraldclan or Lightclan or Furyclan, besides those three have always held a space in my heart.

cx ^^
Wasn't your college wifi a little finicky at times too? I faintly remember you saying that it sometimes didn't work last year...
o: I would love to use your pictures of Mika, that would be really nice! I'll credit you then cx Oh yeah, DeviantArt does. I found a tumblr that has a bunch of super nice images but am currently waiting to see if they're free to use or not.
Go for it, Blaziken! I'm not familiar with LightClan at all but I am with Emerald (duh, cause that was like the second clan I joined in my forum "career" xD) and I saw FuryClan before too.
Had a brief heart attack earlier cause I got a pop-up on my computer saying that it was infected with a virus and that if I didn't call a certain number in the next 5 mins my computer would be disabled..... I had to like, call my uncle immediately and ask what to do xD it ended up being a fake thing that was meant to scare you (which it did... very successfully xDD)

Yeah... It was really finicky. I am hoping it's not that much of an issue this year o-e'
I have a boatloads that could of use to you ~ :D -five boats sail by-
I made Lightclan in 2012 cx I believe I got over 400 pages with it. We had some really good plots going on and such within that clan c: The members will awesome too, none of that "we can't roleplay because the leader wasn't on" nonsense. I came back on and they had about 15 new pages. I had some reading to do. xD
I should. I'd probably make Emeraldclan. I am worried though since I really only have a week left and I will be gone for a few days before I go to college because of another tractor pull and then college, in general. And people cling to thread owners like I am a lifeboat. xD I am not sure how the roleplaying would be with me being gone for a few days at a time.
Ahh. That happened to my cousin the other day on my computer. He freaked out. haha

Maybe it'll be better. Cross your fingers!
xDDD well I'm not going to be using all five boatloads of pictures of Mika, but, y'know, I'll be happy to use a few xD thanks Blaze <3
OO: that's awesome with LightClan! These days clans don't last long if the leader isn't active :// I really wish they would survive longer.... I'm especially irritated by the fact that the clans that had been carefully planned out and everything die out quicker than ones that were made / formatted in like 20 minutes ;-;
Maybe you can create a thread and remake Emerald, and then just keep it on the side and keep it closed until you think you're ready to open it? Cause you seem like you're really going to be rather busy. My activity level MIGHT drop slightly when I go back to school on the 24th... & both school and marching band are going to keep me very busy as well. Also, since WCF shut down, I'm assuming we can now chat on our den on these forums? cause I'm going to start working on my roleplay response (now that I've finally FINALLY finished band camp).

Oh hi Blaziken! ;DDD -tackle hugs- I'll be here for a bit more, at least until my parents chase me off the computer (in which I'll be forced to run away then) [Oh! I see it o: it looks awesome so far!]

boatloadsxDD No problem, Fion cx
Lightclan was incredible -happy sigh- True is quite sad :/ Honestly, it's why I like to recycle clans because it doesn't take that long for me to borrow things from prior clans to make something. Like Emeraldclan, that was recycled from... I honestly can't remember where I borrowed it's info from. I think it was Aspenclan. I don't really remember it's been too long.
That might be the best option, although I am itching to roleplay because the RP thread I am in now... isn't active nor does it seem too horribly friendly. No-one says 'hi back' :/ That type of attitude rubs me wrong.
YES YES YES =D Our den is back in the RP biz! whoo-hoo -confetti & cuts ribbons-
Oh and Ollie wanted me to let you know that you are the wife out of our relationship. xDDD haha
