mary kate olsen or ashley olsen, sometimes i have a hard time telling them apart and i think black and white makes it even more difficult.

months ago i bought 4 rolls of c41 process black and white film and a roll of revolog tesla 1 film. i haven't used any of them yet! i have a lot of anxiety about messing up "special" film and i want to pre-plan out every single exposure to make sure i get the best use of it. stupid idea, i'm well aware, i think i had thought out one specific shot for the tesla film and then never wrote it down, now that's forgotten and i'm back to square one. i need to just load it up and shoot it already before the weather gets glum and there are less interesting things to shoot [plus i hate going out in the cold].

with her white hair and her white dress she was so white that she looked silver

“I snatched my camera from the car and took two quick shots as she seemed to hesitate…As quickly as possible I shoved the exposed film into the case and reached for a fresh holder. I no sooner had pulled the slide out and got set for another shot than she waved to the crowd below and pushed herself into space. Screams and shouts burst from the horrified onlookers as her body plummeted toward the street. I took a firm grip on myself, waited until the woman passed the second or third story, and then shot.”
