I can’t believe I’ve spent the past 2 years not making contact prints. I’d look at my negatives on a light box and assume I could guess the good ones. I’m sure I was normally right, even though I plan on buying 5 boxes of paper to contact it all.. I’ve spent all afternoon contacting all the images from India, and only got through about 1/3. Depressingly, it’s been nearly 9 years since I’d projected light at sensitive paper to create an image. It’s probably surprising that someone who’s about to get his MFA in photo hasn’t been involved in chemically altering light sensitive materials!!!
It’s become a tradition for me to take a picture of myself as soon as I arrive at my hotel. I’ve got the image every trip outside of the US. Here’s the contact sheet from the last trip. I like the image of myself watching TV. I never get an amazing image though! Probably looking at the past 8 years of images would be interesting.
