It's Kind Of Our Routine

Description

I've only recently started learning how to use a film SLR, so I wasn't really expecting any of the photos on my first role of film to be anything special. Not surprisingly, when I went to pick up the prints I was told none of them had come out. I was disappointed, but it's all part of the learning curve I guess!
Despite this, I asked to keep the negatives and had a quick look though them. I noticed a couple of dark shapes, but I don't have a darkroom or a negative scanner. The only way I could think of finding out what the photos were, was to hold the negatives against a window and take a photo with my dSLR.
I took some fiddling around in photoshop, but I managed to salvage these shots from the roll of film. I know they're grainy and the quality isn't amazing, but I really like them anyway. They're my first photos taken on film so they'll always mean something to me. And hopefully the next set will come out properly! :boing:

The bottom photo was taken by ~I-am-Not-An-Acrobat btw! He's amazing, check his stuff out (:

I actually really like them! Don't be discouraged. Most times when the people at the photo studio tell me the photos "didn't come out" I tell them to scan them for me anyway, since my idea of what's good enough and theirs is often very different (since I actually quite like the grain and the blur and all things technically wrong XD). So yeah. Have fun with film and keep trying :D
