Polaroid Alternative Process

Photographer Joanne Warfield does Polaroids in Alternative Process. She calls them "Polaroid wet negative prints". Very strange, but interesting work. Her "Mythology" series is worth checking out. (The image above is just a teaser.)

I found her website through Metafilter.com. You can check out more links to contemporary photography, photojournalism and interesting artists at the Metafilter Photography Page.

Dean's Office / Photo Search Committee

Please do not call Dean's Office of Arts and Architecture about the current photo hiring decision. The Photo Search Committee decides on this and we will know the outcome soon enough.

This is to help clear up some confusion when students were mistakenly told to contact our Dean's Office to voice our concerns and support.

Thanks.

Anarchists at the Democratic National Convention

Check out this video by photographer Tim Hussin. See his website and also his regularly updated blog for incredible images.

In the video Tim combines still images, audio, and video for a unique view of the anarchists protesting at the DNC.

Tim recently won NPPA's 2008 College Photographer of the Year award with an image taken during an anti-war protest, also in Denver.

Book Project

These are some images from my 360 book project. I am doing my project on color and texture, and taking all of my photographs on Rouse St. If you have any advice or comments it would be appreciated. Thanks

Gray Cards etc.

So here is a good explanation of Gray cards from Steve. As if there isn't enough confusion already.
these are a few more images that i took this last weekend in hylite with my pinhole. There is an obvious spot on the first image that was flashed when the film was not rolled tight when remove but my question is has anyone ever seen those red bands before. any input would help, it was developed at F-11. also let me know what you think of the images aside from the obvious red bands.

CHAMPION Magazine

So for those of you that haven't heard, I was chosen to be featured in the NCAA Champion Magazine. This self-portrait was chosen to be the cover. It took a lot of work, but I was very pleased with the outcome.

Project

So I've started a PayPal project and am kind of curious to see what becomes of it. I started up a blog for it here. It's called Faith in Fame and gives people the opportunity to tell me what to photograph and I send them an original print, then delete the file so they have a one of a kind image. I've already had a couple orders since starting it this morning, which was unexpected, but exciting none the less! Check it out and tell me what you think! Faith in Fame

More cell pics

So what do you all think of these pics for my advanced color cell phone pics project? I've been doing some shooting but am trying to figure out whether to do full portraits or show some variations and I like these two detail shots, and actually kind of like how they go together, but was wondering if anybody else finds this work interesting so far.

Utensils Of Beauty -1

Here's the first test run for my Advanced Color project. I'm not quite sure how the format is going to be, especially after I add the model pics too.  Let me know what you think so far...thanks!
