more pinholes

for some reason, some of my photos turned out either REALLY red or REALLY blue. strange, must have overexposed them somehow. i'm thinking the red ones were because i accidentally exposed part of the film to the red safety light in the darkroom while rewinding the roll... no idea on the blue. any photography experts want to give me a clue?

more pinhole

Another pinhole photo. this time of a girl in my design studio. too bad i tried to readjust the angle of the camera mid-shot... ended up with a weird ghost image of sorts!

My pinhole photos!

My film finally got developed! and i actually got some decent shots! so excited! and since i've been such a slacker on blogging regularly (the end of my summer classes have been super busy...) i'll post one photo each day :) enjoy!

oil lamp base design numero uno


ta da! this was my first base design. like the nifty lil logo i decided on? i also have some really sweet newe designs i've cut out of plexi that i can't wait to photograph and put up on here next (now that i finally have my camera back!). they lok pretty space-agey, i think.

The Camera's Complete!

Whew! Finally! I've been finished with this for a week now and it was driving me crazy that my car was locked and i had no way to get my digital camera out of it! but here they are! and now we're just awaiting my first roll of film from gentry's photo shop, my first pinhole shots should be ready for pick up on saturday :)

Sad Face

I finally finished my pinhole camera last week and took plenty of photos of it to share with you guys but now i can't find my digital camera! :-(
However, did end up taking the pinhole version with me hiking on Dragon's Tooth near Roanoke and I think I got some good pics! but I'll have to wait til the film gets developed. Until then, here's a few cell phone shots of the beautiful views!

3d rendering!

My first successful rendering in Rhino! I feel so accomplished! This will (hopefully) be the metal cap that will hold a wick in my next industrial design project: an oil lamp! Not sure if I'll actually be able to make it on the CNC machine, but if worse comes to worse, I may improvise with a metal icing decorator tip.
