When I was in high school, I found this poem by Christina Rossetti called "Remember". It's about losing a loved one. It spoke to me so much that it became one of my three favorite poems (the other two are by Shakespeare and Neruda).
When I started doing Lomography a few years back, I wanted to do a series inspired by this poem. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to. Then less than two years ago, I got my heart broken so badly and this poem helped me through that rough time.
The wound has long healed and I finally have the courage talk about moving on through my photos. So I packed my Belair and my amazing tripod and set off to Malibu - to shoot a series inspired by both the poem and my heartbreak.
Of course, the results aren't as good as they would have been had I used my Mamiya but I'm still happy, if only because I finally got to do this series and because it's a labor of love.
My boyfriend and I got up at 5 am to drive all the way to Malibu for this series. My hands and feet were freezing the entire shoot AND we got a parking ticket for it so I really really hope people will enjoy the photos, even if they're not amazing quality.
I can't quite compete with @hodachrome yet, but hey, the dude's on a whole 'nother level ;-). This was my second 'exposing both sides' (EBS) test roll. The black line through the middle is because the black card I taped as a mask in the back of the camera (instead of using a Splitzer) was a bit too big. Otherwise, though, it turned out pretty good, and I can't wait to go do it again...!
The really bright purple ones were shot at midday at iso 200. They're my favorite. The others were shot at sunset at iso 100. After ruining my first chrome purple, I got really excited when I saw these.
i made two mistakes:
...first i left the lubitel in B-Mode and took the first picture.
...then i forgot to transport the film to the new frame and took the next picture...wääääähhhh....
...Now, it is my favorite picture;-)
