      It's still a great shot, sweetpea.

      Toby! The dead arose and appeared to many! Nice set (no pun intended)

      Yeah, I figured I'd see what this whole Flickr thing was all about. After all - I've only had the account for like, two years. I tell ya - processing film in our tiny bathroom is really no fun.

      well you only need to be in there to load the film right?

      loosen up.

      our counterspace is no more than (seriously) one square foot. try keeping two gallons of diafine, a gallon of fixer, tanks, etc, in there.

      and baby, i'm as loose as they get.

      jon: suck it!

      I wonder... how did you end up at this place... It's probably far less surreal than it seams, but I could be wrong.

      Brandon - Michele and I are both 'into' tattoos (we both have several and I'm sketching a chest piece this week) and know a handful of artists. We had never been to a convention so we thought we'd give it a shot. It was ok, but not as interesting as I'd hoped.

      The spookiness is a combination of:
      Tri-X souped in Diafine
      Poor fixing, which lead to weird effects
      No Photo-Flo, no cleaning of the negs
      Horrible, quick, late-for-work scanning at low-res
      No correction

      So yeah, it's all fake.

      Heh... awesome. All those elements come together really well for these photos. My kind of stuff.

      did you really say "souped"?

    12. tobyjoe (85 months ago | reply)

      Do you have a job yet, ross?
      I wonder because it says 'Pro' next to your name, and I know you have a photography degree... So I assume you found one...

      low blow!
