Some misc film scans I’ve been slacking on for like a year or so… these were mostly shot with a Nikon FM2 aside from a few Yashica T4 snaps.

Just a few little shots from after the shoot I did a few weeks back. Nothing special, aside from the fact that I am hardly ever awake at this time

After last week’s Matt & Kim/Death Set show we headed over to the Wiener’s Circle to help fight off the inevitable Colt45 hangover… here are some photos (aside from the first one which is a cat). I used to live a block away from there so it was kind of fun reminicsing for a minute. Oh and I had to pee so I went and pissed behind the dumpster behind my old apartment. It’s a long story but it felt pretty good.
Inside the Wiener’s Circle. It’s a fairly famous Chicago spot..
This guy requested I take a picture of him and his girlfriend, who seemed pretty annoyed by it. The photo turned out pretty rad, though.
Here’s a video from This American Life about the Wiener Circle.. it’s definitely worth a watch:

Shot while take a break on a job shooting at an art gallery..
I love shallow DOF.. this was shot on the 50mm/f1.4. Not the best photo of all time but I like details. Best viewed really large of course.

Was shooting at the Puerto Rican pride carnival last week here in Humboldt Park. This guy wanted his photo taken so I obliged.
More photos coming soon… much of what I have been working on lately has been either a) for a client and shouldn’t be blogged yet or b) event coverage and not too interesting to be blogged.
Hope everyone is well!

It’s tax day. I just spent a ton of time getting my taxes done (the program was giving me the run around) and ended up owing a ton of money. It’s my first year being fully “freelance” and I guess I did not prepare enough for that. $1600 owed to the US of A for their fun little experiments in Iraq and whatever else they use it on. Oh well, at least I will be getting some “stimulus money” that I can give directly back.
Anyway, I promised more content. I’m at a coffee shop, without my harddrives, so the only fun new content I could find was this one photo. But, it’s a good photo of one of Chicago’s best restaurants.

Here’s my last roll of Superia 400. Had some camera “issues”, this the reason for the two light leaks in the middle of the roll. I opened the back to make sure film was advancing properly… it was. I am a paranoid fuck, I guess. Oh well.
All shots on fuji superia 400 colour shot on nikon fm2/28mm prime. Manipulations listed under photos.
unsharp mask, dodge/burn. red edge is from light leak.
b/w conversion via channel mixer in PS7. USM and some dodge/burn as well. worked better in b/w
same as last… more sharpening though as it was soft.. and i was drunk.. and so was he..
dead fly. played with colours some and did much sharpening unfortunately. also dodge/burn
first and only time at the pool this year. was sunny as I arrived but then got cloudy and rained.. overcast, thus b/w conversion via channel mix in PS7.
I RARELY crop much at all of any of my shots.. this one is cropped quite a lot because I only had a 28mm lens on me at the time and I couldn’t really get closer. Also boosted saturation, here. Again, was a shitty afternoon with clouds…
The rest are all the same.. not much manip other than standard USM and dodge/burn…
and the contact sheet…
That’s all for now..
Enjoy,
Clayton
