prints now for sale/view at pulaski bikes, other stuff.

yesterday tim and i dropped off three prints at pulaski bikes (see previous post(s) of his photos taken with the mamiya m645. we only scanned 2 of the 3, pictured here:
norfolk southern engine
chrysler
we forgot to scan the other one. OOPS.
i've contacted the fine arts center of the new river valley in hopes of getting some of our work on display. maybe i'll get a response back.
i'm also trying to find some other outlets to show our work in blacksburg, but i haven't reached out to anyone yet.
yesterday we found a very interesting spot and shot a couple rolls, however, we both had a streak of bad luck. tim was able to salvage some of his negatives and made a few prints:
Laboritois
and
Rotting Sunroom
in my case, i was shooting the old nikon fg which has a terrible light leak at the bottom of the film door. i've posted some of the results on a flickr set, but nothing is noteworthy by any means.
after developing and scanning the negatives i decided to do a bit of lightproofing, and shot a roll of kodak bw400cn that i developed in rodinal 1:100 for an hour. the negatives are drying now. from looking at the negatives i think i fixed the light leak problem, but as with a previous experiment with this film and developer i'll end up with a lot of blown out highlights and loss of detail. if i end up with any decent results i'll post them here.
