I wanna do some street portraits and other portraiture, but I'm too shy to ask anyone :( Don't want to shove cameras in peoples faces either.

[QUOTE=roflcakes;44266494]I've got a couple of rolls of 35mm and a roll of Ilford Delta 400 120 to develop. Previously I gave them to my housemate and he developed/scanned them using his own shit. Trouble is, he graduated last year... Planning on just taking the 35mm to boots, but not sure what to do with the 120. Anyone got any recommendations for photo developing places (chains or just just somewhere in north or central London)?[/QUOTE] mate dont go to boots. theres a very nice place in bethnal green called 'eye culture'. It's where me and pickwickian go. 120 is £3.99 (i think) and 35 is £2.50. thats dev only. They'll take good care of you.
Agreed. Plus, it's an honest independent family store - I'd much rather spend my money there.
I have to write a short script by friday but I have no idea what to write. My creativity hasn't been exercised in a long time...

should I apply to be a photographer for my schools sports magazine?
I seem to have forgotten how to edit anything that isn't in a club and its really pissing me off everything looks like ass
[QUOTE=dwt110;44269220]should I apply to be a photographer for my schools sports magazine?[/QUOTE] Do it and use wide angles, get close, so you're not posting generic shots of sports dudes from far away using a 900mm f/3. [editline]17th March 2014[/editline] Just to be different.

[QUOTE=Roll_Program;44269391] using a 900mm f/3. [/QUOTE] i wish that was a thing it says to submit 5 good photos to them, I could pick 5 from one event but they are all basically the same so I might go to a sports practice one of my friends is on and photograph their practice, either baseball or lacrosse or tennis
Found a Konica 40mm 1.8 at goodwill for $7 but it had fungus For shame goodwill, for shame
The more old photos I look at the sadder I get that Kodachrome has been discontinued.

currently thinking about how sending an undeveloped x-ray (sheet film) through an x-ray machine (airports, etc.) could fog the film [editline]17th March 2014[/editline] this world is hell
one of my photographer friends who has a business talked to me about maybe being his assistant or apprentice. I felt pretty honored but at the same time it felt daunting to do it for clients and stuff. I know I may just be helping him with some stuff but I had a lot of mixed feelings, probably not confident enough yet with my own work.
Take the opportunity, doesn't happen every day mate.

[QUOTE=The Salmon;44273257]Take the opportunity, doesn't happen every day mate.[/QUOTE] aaaaaaaaaa, yeah I should. I didn't say outright no and he said he'll keep me posted so I'll tell him i really want to do it. i just felt a bit intimidated by the offer really. [editline]17th March 2014[/editline] oh and hell yeah, we should all meet up! I basically live right in the middle of Cali (Fresno) so anywhere is fine for me haha
quick vote agree for santa cruz disagree for san fran informative for write-in [editline]18th March 2014[/editline] [img]http://puu.sh/7zQvT.png[/img] fight me here and now, pickwickian
i only say san fran because its far more interesting than santa cruz however, it is just a 10 min drive away and you could stay here (my house or a close friends) on your travels, because i know you are on tour, and its free
3 people literally stole that bird avatar I was using and started using it so I had to switch. Weird. [editline]18th March 2014[/editline] Lol
