Contact sheet/ Test print

     The best technical aspect on my work I think was making the test strip on the small piece of paper. I took a contact sheet of my negatives then made a test strip. The amount of light that came out the best was 6 seconds. What I need to work on would be hen making my  contact sheet to make sure that the negative doesn't move so that way the image comes out clear.
     The easiest part about this project was making the contact sheet. Because all you really need to do was make the negative come out on the small piece of paper. The hardest part about this activity was trying to make it come out right. It always came out to dark or to light. I just had to keep do it over and over again till it finally came out right.
      If I could do this again I would use a difrent picture so there would be more values of grey. I think it would look a lot better if I did that. I think i did what was asked i made my contact sheet and made my big print.

Coffee Can Camera

 

     In the coffee can camera or pin hole camera, the strongest aspect of my work would be that we were able to get a picture to come out. The technical aspect of my work that needs to improve is making the positives of the negative picture. We could not find a way that it would not come out to dark. 
     The easy part about this was making the pin hole camera. All we and to do was black out a can then put tin foil all around it then out the hole in it. The hardest part was trying to make the positives. They just did not want to come out so you could see them. 
    I think that we demonstrated the objective in this activity because we did successfully make the image come out. If I could have done this again I would try to get the picture to come out bigger then it is right now. I believe that if it was bigger it would have a lot more information so when we try to make a positive I think it would have come out a lot better.
