absense by Remsha Y.


When i first printed this picture, i was surprised by how much the photo was lacking. There was way too much contrast and there was nothing to really look at. I took a look at the picture again and thought about it. This picture was a great example of absense and loneliness. I began to like how the photo lacked emotion, it was just a blank feeling. Now this is one of my favorite photos.

Easter by Stacy B.


This picture was taken during Easter, and my mother and I were painting eggs in the Ukranian fashion. Many of my pictures have hands as the subject matter, and this was no exception. Somehow, hands always work for me and in this case they make the picture. The hands themselves are in focus, while the egg is slightly out of focus, adding to the picture.

"untitled" by Skyler O.


It was very interesting experimenting with leaving the shutter of my camera open while photographing myself using a lighter for my light source. i had to use slow photo paper in the darkroom because of how dark my prints were coming out. my prints came out pretty creepy and abnormal. i again experimented putting my fingers in the developer and developing a specific part of my photo. when this print came out, i decided i wanted to find a way to make this print even more odd looking. to do this, i printed the photo as a negative.

Flora On The Wall by Julie M.




I really like the idea of this picture because it's very open to interpretation. To me, it shows a person blending in with the backround, yet standing up for who they are.

Youth by Julie M.



This photo is one of my favorite photos because it reflects a strong message in my opinion; youth. I really enjoyed taking this photo and the other ones because the idea behind the photos means a lot to me and the people I photographed mean a lot to me as well.
