Pentax K1000 Love

"That Lip Ring I Hate", SLR 35 mm print
Yes, I do own a K1000 Pentax (ahh, so wonderful). No, I do not have film for it...it's like buying vinyl records...you have to look harder to find them. I did take this in Senior Photography class in 2010. My friend Edwin (best of luck to you in Airforce!) got a lip piercing, which I hated at the time, but I now realize made a really great picture. I featured this photograph in my the Tate Art Show last semester. However, I framed it in layers-I will post the framed version when I find it. Long live Film Photography...it's a dying art- an art worth preserving. Black and white pictures can be so powerful because they lack color-such a simple, but beautiful effect.
