best day ever.
it's amazing how one good day can erase all the memories of endless shitty days.
i was walking home today and i know one of my favorite photographers is in toronto today doing a lecture....Andres Serrano....he's this really controversial photographer that has photographed the KKK and even does tableau peices involving bodily fluid (ie. blood, urine, ejaculate). so i was walking home..and i was thinking about one of his photos "Piss Christ" and i look up...and guess who's fucking walking towards me? ANDRES FUCKING SERRANO. i stopped walking..just stood there and my jaw dropped open. and he obviously saw and he walked by and smiled and said "hi" all shy n shit. and all i could to was mumble. Serrano said hi to me. i wanted to like...touch his hands or something. holy fuck. and then i went to check my mail. and i got a letter from my school. they gave me a fucking bursary for a couple of grand. whichis amazing cuz i had only a few hundred to live off of for the next month. and now i have enough money to make 16x20 prints for my final critique...and i can frame them! AND i can put a lot of money towards my medium format camera. i'm so happy right now. -s. |

not yet. i think i'm gonna wait till i get home. i might buy one off of ebay. my friend got a Hasselblad on ebay during the holidays for like 1200 and she got 2 film backs and 2 lenses??!?!?! so i'm gonna look around first before just buying a random hasselblad. i might even get a Mamiya....only because you can switch between square and rectangular format. but hasselblads are so much nicer. if i get a hasselblad i'm gonna get the model that's compatible with a digital back just in case i stumble across 10 grand and can afford a digital back. hah. you never know.
either way, i want to buy a medium format that comes with normal and wide angle lenses and at least an extra film back and maybe a polaroid back just so i can test out photoshoots. i'll let you know alllll about it. -s. |
