Is there any bigger tease in life than a clear, sunny day in December? Because that’s what us Portlanders are going through today. I’m not going to complain… Too much… But when scanning in these frames from the summer I had to resist the urge to throw on my cutest summer get-up and catch the next bus to St. John’s. I mean, just look at Brianne in her little ~safari~ outfit! And… Shoes with no socks? Guh. Come back soon, Summer. WE MISS YOU!
This was the second roll of color film I ran through the Mamiya. As you can tell, I was still pretty in love with the rotating back, hence all the vertical shots. Plus, my first successful double exposure! Woo!
At the very least I can be thankful that it hasn’t rained in so long that I can’t even remember the last time it rained. I’ll just have to settle for capturing some of the outfits that winter helps create and posting those in 6 months, while I complain about how hot it is. :)

(Also, the second to last photo is something you see on an album insert or something, really beautifully done!)

on December 13, 2011 2:02 pmThanks Sara. :) I'm in love with her curls, too, but apparently she is just as straight-haired as you and me, though I've never actually seen any proof of this. She admits to laboriously curling her hair every day, though! What a trooper.

on December 14, 2011 4:25 pmOooo, that double gave me chills! The Mamiya is giving you some crazy DOF, or maybe my eyes are just tired from being at the computer all day. Either way, it's making me miss summer too!
