final project, unraveling DNA, hands

for my final project i took a couple of rolls and shot all my friend's hands in different motions, then burned the film after it was developed (literally, with a lighter) to get the warped effect, then did a coper toner over the black and whites after i printed them.
a big thanks goes out to all of my hand models for this project, and to buzzy for helping me so much in the printing process. these are all originally 8x10's
here were the best:















and just for fun, here is my contact sheet with my negetives. me and buzzy burned em' pretty good.

animal parts

here is another black and white series i did this term with various animal parts and skulls and things. keep in mind all of these are hand developed and printed, so i know they are not perfect.


duck feet and flowers


monkey skull inside a bugle


duck feet around a quail skull


deer antlers and a monkey skull, lace and fabric


blue jay (thanks to lynn barrett)


hands (lucas root)

i know it's been a while

but the thing is, i've been working with film for the past three months, and do you know what a pain it is to find a decent scanner and scan things and then upload them and then post them. who has the time? apparently i didn't. anyways, here is ONE set of pictures i did for a project titled "surfaces".
