FOTOS

I finally picked up the elusive cross-processed Fisheye film today. I have two grievances about this - 1. They said they'd call when it was done, because I dropped it in when they were waiting on a new part for the machine so couldn't give me a date. I actually went in to see if the machine was fixed and my photos have been there for a week.
2. It cost $29.75 for one set of prints and a disc. Even with cross-processing, I'm sure that is horrendously expensive. Well, it was only $18.90 at the other camera place for prints and a disc, and you're using the same chemicals in cross-processing.

I don't know, its quite apparent from these that I'm horrendously bad at holding my hand still while taking pic-chaz. Regardless, this is my first attempt at using my fisheye!

Web love: F-Stop Magazine

The other day, trying to find my DVD of Doctor Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog (more on this later!), Levi went "Em? Why do you have three cameras in your bag?".

And I thought, INDEED. Why do I? I have the Lomo fisheye camera I bought in London (and, sadly, only just finished my first roll of film about two months later, which I was told will cost $50 to get developed! Stupid slide film), the disposable camera we bought in Windsor when we realised that someone (probably me) forgot the digital*, and my digital camera.

*This one made it safely out the back of the camera shop with minimal fuss. I shall pick it up tomorrow :D

So considering I don't really take a lot of photos, that seemed a bit illogical. But I actually do really like photography, so I found this photography magazine again last night and luckily they have a superb archive so I could find my FAVOURITEST EVER series of photos!



Pierre Javelle and Akiko Ida were the featured artists in the Jul/Aug 2006 issue and I love the detail in the pictures!







More things of theirs can be found here, and F-Stop magazine is available here

English Breakfast tastes like Darjeeling

So, while I've been not blogging for the past two months, this is what I've been up to:



Wandering London on the hottest day of their summer (32 degrees...) with Levi and his friends Tom and Felix (and Alice, who was taking the picture with Levi)



Playing in Harrod's



Going on a hovercraft!



Having tea...



... and scones



Chilling with Zac Effron (not that I enjoy High School Musical in the slightest, but it was a fun picture)



Also chilling with James Dean



Had a brief weekend in Paris



And hit up the Friends coffee house in Carnaby Street.
