This is right next to Burnside skate park where they're building an atrocious building, and destroying part of the skate park in the process. The skate park is a big part of Portland history and has been there since the 90's.

Alternative Process : Wet Plate Collodion

James Weber

Collodion prints were invented in 1851 by Fredrick Scott Archer, and the primary subject for them was people. The print negatives were made on glass. There are other types, such as an Ambrotype, is the glass with a black backing. Another type is the Tintype, which is a positive image printed onto metal that became popular in the Civil War. The Wet Plate Collodion process is eight steps, 3 of them are cutting, deburring and cleaning the glass. Then you pour the mixture on the plate and sensitize it. Then put the plate in silver nitrate for 3-5 minutes and developing it for 15-20 seconds after you take it out. Lastly, you fix the plate with potassium cyanide and watch it change from a blue negative into a warmer ambrotype.

Alternative Process : Cyanotype

Brian Young

In 1842 Sir John Herschel invented the cyanotype in 1842, it is the first permanent non-silver process. The 2 chemicals used are potassium ferricyanide and ferric ammonium citrate green, which you brush onto the paper. Then you expose it to the negative and process it in the sun. The picture really shows up when you wash it in cold water. The cyanotype became widely used in the late nineteenth century for engineering (blueprints).

Alternative Process : Gum Bichromate

Alan Kent

The Gum Bichromate process was discovered by Mungo Pomton in 1839. This process starts with mixing gum arabic and ammonium bichromate with pigment to create an emulsion that is light sensitive. Then coat your paper with this emulsion, using a wide flat brush so you get a smooth finish. Let the paper dry for several hours in a dark room, then once it is dry, place a negative on it and then place a glass contact printing frame on top of that. Expose the photo to UV light, and develop the print in water, Soak the print in water for another 20-30 minutes to clean and develop the print further.

Panorama

I took this panorama at the football field outside the school. It's not really exciting but I think it turned out pretty cool. Also Brennan is posing like a natural model on the right so that makes it better.

Layers : Makeup

These photos look really good layered together because they were all taken in the same lighting, and two of them are makeup. They all kind of have a darkish tone to them and I feel like they fit well together.

Layers : Blue

When I made this photo I was focusing on a blue theme because the picture of my friend teeren had a bluish flash, and he was holding the blue doll. I picked a photo with clouds that I really liked and just cropped out the rest. And the pine needles just fit nicely with the two other photos, and I really like how there's a lot of blue and then the small pop of Teeren's red and yellow eyeshadow. I tried a lot of combinations of photos until I finally got something that looked right to me.

Layers : Gold

I decided to pair these three photos together because pink and gold are a really pretty color combination. I knew I wanted to put the picture of Teeren and the gold eyeshadow together, but I didn't know what to put as the background. I looked through a bunch of photos that I had taken of flowers and felt like that one went along with it the best.
