Film Assignment 1 Journal

I thoroughly enjoyed shooting whatever I pleased. I had forgotten how much I loved film until I picked up the camera again. Unfortunately, for some reason one row of negatives did not develop as planned. It just so happened to be the one row that was filled with my duplicates of the other speed roll. Luckily, I had two images in approximately the same light, so I used those two to compare 100 and 400 speed film. I loved both images; the focus was nearly there, strong composition, beautiful natural window light. I loved both my cups, and the unidentified white iron decoration. My favorite print--for both images was the little one. I have fallen in love with the giant white border, and now all I need is a negative carrier that can give me a black background. The medium and big prints were tough because the focus deteriorated, and dust exacerbated. Sigh dust was a pretty big issue here. But if I can get past my OCD and look to the technical elements of the print, and the strong elements of the image, I am pretty pleased. The three different sizes match each other pretty well. I can't really tell a big difference between the two films, and if I had two of very similar images I might've been able to complete this task more accurately. However, I am happy with my work.
