Olmpus om10

Mike's dad let me borrow his Olympus om10 35mm camera. So to test it out i used some out of date film (expiry date - 2005) just to have a play around with the camera and how the film turns out.
Our cars were getting pretty filthy so we decided to clean them today, not the best idea considering how cold it actually turned out to be. While we washed the cars i took some photos using the camera, then once we were done washing the cars i got the film developed at asda and put on a CD.
Even though the women had scanned the film in backwards so all the images were the wrong way round and half of them had been cropped some of them turned out pretty good and have a really cool vintage grain look to them!
Quite chuffed really, ended the day with a clean car and some cool looking photos :)

Summerset house

Ive been so overwhelmed with my UCAS application and trying to book a holiday with the girls. Now that its all done and over with ive been spending my time being lazy and just trying to relax, hiding away from this freezing weather!

But a highlight of my year so far has to be our college day out to Summerset House and around Covent Gardens. Its such a lovely part of london which i had never been to before.
We officially went there to see the exhibition inside summerset house, but being a college trip we didnt actually go look at it. There was an arranged time in the day for us to go iceskating. Having half of our college class going round an icerink becomes rather amusing. Being pushed over by your friends and dragging others around, it ended up being alot more fun than it sounds.

When we wernt messing around the girls that wernt iceskating offered to take some photographs. Even though i didnt take these photographs i felt like sharing them on my blog just because of how much i enjoyed the day and really makes me appreciate the people around me.

Vibrant entertainment

So once again i was down at Wycombe Acadamy on the 30th of December to photograph an event organised by Vibrant entertainment. Untitled-1
They had an awesome snow cannon which looked great in the photos. I tried out a few new settings i had researched in these photos and i think they are getting better and better with practice.
Really starting to make a name for myself photographing these events, its money in my pocket and its actually really fun!
The rest of the photographs are here if you want to have a look :D.
