The ten photos you see here are faces I have collected over the past two summers. The toad is a resident of Virginia and the bison lives in Wyoming, but ambles along as if he got his drivers license in England. I took the black and white photo in Washington State with an old OM2n film camera, recorded it on Tri-X 400 and processed it at a lab in Bellingham Washington called, “Positive-Negative”. Jason owns the lab, rents it by the hour, has four enlargers, chemicals, print drier and most anything else you need. He is working on adding color-processing capabilities and also gives lessons in film developing and pinhole photography. It’s great to have a rental darkroom in town and a helpful owner like Jason.

I absolutely love that black and white shot; you’ve frozen a real moment there.
He was moving pretty fast and I got lucky.
Luck definitely has a big role when it comes to kids & film photography!
I enjoyed your post very much, Brick. Enjoyed seeing some of the faces of your two summers, which has an impressive geological span. My favorite is the first one, because I’ve been to outdoor markets in the Seattle area and they’re so colorful and popular and vibrant, just like this photo. 🙂
Thanks, Jet. The markets are a lot of fun around here and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Omg that bison would have scared me 😋
He had all my attention and respect. 🙂
