this was a project for my fine art photography class. we were to pick a photographer, and figure out what they did, and why they did it, and create 3 images that could be considered part of their portfolio. i picked jerry uelsmann, but his images were all done in the dark room (seriously amazing beyond his time!). mine were done in a darkroom too, but that was my bedroom with the lights out.. you can see his work here: http://www.uelsmann.net/
