My first ever MF Images - Bead girl selling her wares

I like it. It looks kind of "American Gothic." She's so serious.

I like it too.

Classic shot and timeless.

GREAT STUFF!
just wait until you expose your LF

Awesome image! I hope you do a series based on this. Great concept.

Thanks guys! I've thought of doing a series on this, I asked her to be sad actually, but she could only seem to get this hard smirky look, but that's the reality of her persona, so I accept it, it was a comment on how she's selling beads and other crafty things, but she was struggling, only old ladies would buy from her and it wasn't as in demand as it was years ago. I may do a series once I can get the bellows fixed, there's a lot of light leak, I have been covering it with layers of duvetine and wrapping it up, but there's also a lot of bellows dust etc and it ruins a lot of images between the light and dust. Help fix my bellows! but the glass is in perfect shape, really clear and so I hope to get it fully restored soon.And jnanian, I would love to shoot LF... haha, I have now been gifted the film, a few holders, and a lens at super cheap cost, but the body is the hard part, I really want a field camera, but one with a significant amount of movements... but I don't want to pay much for it, and I mean, the kind of money I payed for this Kodak... haha.

Nice work.

Great Work!
