University Project - What do you think to my idea

Journal Entry: Thu Nov 26, 2009, 2:01 AM
I have just realised that I haven't said what my project idea is, to anyone on here, and I am just wondering what everyone else thinks to my idea.

Basic Idea:

Well I am going to be taking photographs of zoo enclosures, I will be taking the photographs on a film camera and developing these shots onto some fibre based paper, or archive photograph paper, this will hopefully give me an old looking photograph.

Why do I want them to come out like this?

Basically because I am going to be creating a collection of work that looks like a lost archive of photographs, which show that zoos used to look similar to what they do now, and that all zoos weren't iron bars and concrete floors.


So what do you all think, all comments and feedback is useful :D

Thank you :hug:

Well I am wondering whether I should treat myself to
Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5x Macro

or
Whether I should focus more on my wildlife photogrpahy which would mean getting something more like
Canon Extender EF 2x II


I dont know what to do....
opinions and advice would be very appreciated :D

Does anyone know of any derelict zoos??

Well I am currently doing a project on zoos at university and thought it might be interesting to look at the derelict zoo and see what happens to this space after the animal has left.

Does anyone know where any derelict zoos are? It would be so helpful if anyone could let me know if they know of anything that might be useful

It has been a while since I have been on here, I have been settling back into uni I can't believe that I am already in my third and final year, it's scary how much time has flown by.

Today I have been uploading some old photographs which I have meant to upload for ages now, but I haven't had the time to do so until now.

I went out and did a shoot today so I will upload the shots this week, when I went to the zoo this week I also took a 120 film camera so it will be interesting to see how those shots came out :)

Hope your all okay :)
