LOCATION-LOCATION-LOCATION!!!

Sometimes you look and look for a cool location and end up with NOTHING! Then you find something GREAT ! This Polaroid is from a empty office building in Orange next to a Pipe company. This was Done on a Saturday when all the surrounding offices where closed. Wish I could find more Locations that worked as well as this one!!!

It Died

This is what happens when you use LONG EXPIRED POLAROID SPECTRA FILM.. All the colors are GONE ! I was left with yellowish and brownish tones only. I do enjoy the way this image works but it raised hell with some of the other objects I photographed. Oh well I didn't pay for this box of film so its a WIN FOR ME!!!!

GOING GOING GONE?

Color Negative Printing used to be my speciality back when I taught Part Time at a Community College. Now I sit behind the counter at CSULA and Run the Lab. Very few students today want to make color prints using the enlargers and color negatives or the color processor. They want to have someone else make them a LIGHT JET PRINT or make a INK JET PRINT off a DIGITAL FILE that was made on the computer. Color RA 4 Printing at college is a thing of the past and we here at CSULA will join the Digital Color Print only Future Soon. For me it will be a SAD DAY but for the vast majority of Photography Students they will not miss it.
