wowie wow-wow! Taneesa
is a very very lucky girl! And I'm lucky to be in love with her...!
Her auntie GAVE her
an enlarger. for those who don't know what that is, it's what photographers
use to print photographs. it's a real nice one too! and she got it FREE!
so wow, that's cool. but wait! that's not all! she also got Mr. Peck to
lend her some other supplies like a paper easel and a developing tank,
and she got her mom to order some chemicals from the internet (which arrived
at the door less than 24 hours later.) And THEN, being the great boyfriend
I am, I helped her out with the last pieces of the puzzle and bought more
chemicals and paper for her to use, plus the plastic trays that we needed.
So at this point she has very nearly everything that she needs for her
darkroom. except the darkroom. And wah-lah! we turn the upstairs
bathroom into (almost) the perfect place to print and develop photos! So
we have our own darkroom and everything we need (including the enlarger
which would have cost us a LOT if it wasn't given to her.) We were planning
on having a darkroom at some point, but it just happened and we've got
it a lot sooner than we planned. This weekend she printed a whole bunch
of senior pictures to give to friends, and some other prints, and now she
has very little paper left. I hope she leaves some for me! I haven't yet
used the room to make pictures, just the toilet, haha!
The picture featured here was taken
by me, last year. The person in the picture is me.
I don't usually wear hats.
