Description These are the roses I got for Valentine's Day from Rob and Ryan. I took this picture using my Nikon FM10 manual camera using Kodak T-Max 400 Black and White film. I enlarged this photo in the Darkroom Feb. 25, 2003. To do this I took each little square as a separate photo. I went in rows starting at the top left corner going across then down. It took me awhile to do this. I had to mark out where each photo started and ended in my mind. Then after I developed the film I took it and cut it every three frames and put it into a negetive sleeve. I then took the negative sleeve and made a contact sheet out of it in the darkroom.

the idea here is very simple but if not done right id think it wouldnt turn out to well. but you did an excellent job and thats why i had to say something.

the rest of your photographs are wonderful, you have a great eye and are very talented, i hope you realize that. i hope you have a great day.

Very nice Heather, I like that you lined it all up in your head and did it that way as opposed to cheating or something, haha, n-e-way, very cool and it was sweet of Rob and Ryan since your former b/f didn't get you anything for V-day.

see you in class,

-Joe
