Chapter 98 - A World Without Colours
Ever wondered what a world without colours is? Welcome to the B&W world where colours are not cool. :)

So yeah, in case you're wondering what kenny is talking about and if studying has gotten to my head (what studying?), it's actually because I had my virgin (well, almost) darkroom experience yesterday (my first being at the Physics labs). So yeah, what you see above is one of my prints from the darkroom. Pretty cool eh. It's really quite fun to watch your prints develop, although i must say the safelight (red light) gets on my nerves after a while... ;p

Here's the roll of film we processed in the darkroom. On hindsight i think it was quite hilarious. :) Because it was a medium format film (as opposed to the 35mm film we're used to seeing), we had some trouble loading the film onto the developing reel. And two guys (Sean and I) groping fumbling around in the dark for about 20 mins trying to load the film.. haha.

Darkroom processing is really cool! we've made orders for more photographic paper and chemicals because the ones in the fitz darkroom is kinda f**ked up, having been in there for about 10 years (the last log in the darkroom was 1996... eerie eh).. But we had a couple of decent prints in the end, after trying to print 10 shots on some paper that won't work anymore. Still, it's really exciting! Gee, can i not take my exams pretty please... :)

[ying: woohoo. i award you with the best commentary award for your nice comments! *grinz*]

wahhaha...is that a way to squeeze more comments outta me? cos it seems to be working. anyways, the black and white concept reminds me of pleasantville. just that maybe someone should have another version of it....going backwards, with a colourful world going black and white. make the corrupt world transform into a place of simplicity.
