Black Mirror | Day 3

The third day of this project was way better than yesterday. I had good light, my camera battery didn't run out and I got better shots. I also met a security guard for an abandoned hotel (I don't get it either) and got him a soda so I could take pictures inside of the building. So far, I'd say that today's pictures are the best of the three days. Here they are:

Black Mirror | Day 2

Today was the second day of the black mirror project and it didn't go as well as it could have. I started out the day bad, getting up at like 2, and then waiting until 4 to take pictures. About 30 minutes into taking pictures, the battery died, so I walked home and charged it. I went out again at like 5:30, but by then it was way too dim outside to get good pictures. The final 5 photos from today are still good, just not as good as they could have been. Well, here they are:

Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I'll try to go out earlier when the light is still good. It's still really awkward operating a camera and angling the mirror just right, but I'm getting better at it.

Black Mirror | Day 1

Today was the first day of my second photo project: Black Mirror. In this project I'm going to take photos with a mirror in the frame. I'll post five pictures every day for one week.

Today was one of my funnest days taking pictures. Sure I looked weird as hell holding a mirror in front of me and it was hard at first getting the angle right, but the possibilities are huge adding the mirror element to the photo. Looking forward to an interesting project.
