Just an update of my Instant 365 project, days 4, 5 and 6.
For the sake of my sanity, I allow myself to take a picture the day before I post it. Otherwise, I'm rushing around trying to get a picture taken, scanned and posted in one day.

Jenny's Valor
Roadside memorials, or "Descansos" remain one of my favorite subjects. Keeping the Instax camera and a couple of diopters with me, I can stop when I come across a memorial and see the results right away. Instant gratification, kinda like digital...except I really like it.
Every memorial tells a story, but the story is almost never complete. The visitor is left to wonder about the life and death of the person memorialized and about those left behind.
Hopefully, the images I come away with convey those same feelings.

Cyanotypes
- My cyanotypes are hand made contact prints using digital negatives. I print on hot pressed water color paper. I love the process. Still working on getting these in order for sales.
Pinhole Images
- Lensless photography, what a concept. Pinhole images will generally be less sharp and often show movement blur because of the necessarily long exposure times. These characteristics can be put to good use in creating images of unique character.
