Decided to do some crazy editing to make these photos more interesting.

The first photograph is the original, which I didn't think I would be able to use. I experimented a bit and I actually quite like it now. I then decided to try again with a different photograph that I thought might be a bit too boring to use...

Lightbulb. Take one.

 Lightbulb. Take two.

Got myself some lovelyyy Fuji film for my camera and went snapping for my Camberwell and Saint Martins porfolios.

I was walking my dog one day (unfortunately camera free) and decided to walk a different route, when I came across all of these weird creepy looking houses. I went back to take some photos, I actually got shouted at for photographing somebodies house ahhh scary.

Growing and Shrinking.

This photograph was also taken on my adventure. However, I wanted to keep these separate from the series.

My two favourite things, eggs and slippers.

Cracked egg.

I don't think you can really tell what this photo is of, but maybe that's for the best if I want to take it to show universities.

Flower presses didn't work, but I took a photograph of them instead.

Sunny Afternoon.

I know this photo is blurry but I just love Luna too much not to take photos of her being awesome and cute.

This is probably my favourite photograph that came from this reel of film. The double exposure was completely accidental from the end of the film. Looks like I've got three hedgehogs again.

This one's crazy because I manually edited the sand and sea from spain, but the sky taken from Wales.

For my Goldsmith's online portfolio I was only given maximum 12 photographs to upload. I decided that in order to cheat the system, I could edit all of the 'Earth Press' photographs into one. Unfortunately I felt that the last, and most abstract of the images didn't quite fit into this piece. I wish in a way that I had also uploaded the last image, however I think it may be too late.

I am currently waiting on some real flower presses, however as they take 2 weeks without a microwave, or a time machine, I decided to attempt something similar using my own instant method. These pieces that I have named 'Earth Press' are the second series of my 'moleskin experience'.

I was recently inspired by my current favourite artist, Takashi Homma. Although the content of the photos may not match his style, I was inspired by the form of presentation he used for a Toyko exhibition, available to view here http://www.moleskine.com/events/detour/artists/takashi_homma.php as a 'vimeo experience'. I have attempted to recreate a 'moleskin' experience of my own. To begin are a series of photographs I have labelled 'Light, Heat'. When viewing these photographs developed, I was disappointed due to the lack of light and thought they were unsuccessful. However, I experimented with heat and aging using an 'aga'. On some of the photographs I was pleased with the brighter, new colours and have displayed the ones I found most interesting as the first series from my own 'moleskin experience'.
