Complications came with developing the film, there was hair, dirt weird coloring and other random effects that happened between taking the picture to when the picture was developed and scanned onto the computer. Maybe it was the very old film, or the old camera, maybe the people at Rite Aid are terrible at developing and put dirt into the negatives. There could be endless explanations, but the result came out to look like these fallowing photos.

I honestly really like them. The color makes them look vintage, from the 1960/70's, and the speckles makes them more unique and vintage like. Like they have been locked away in a box for many years causing them to fade and change color.
The process of taking these photos was a lot of fun, Vanessa and I left school for block D and headed to the beach. She was wearing my vintage (don't know what decade... a long time ago) dress, she has the absent gaze that i like in my photos, as well as the long willowy body. She also added a lot of insight of places on the beach we should go towards. We did not have a lot of time before we had to get back to school but it was lot easier working with her then it was working with Raven on my last model shoot. She was very serious and no laughing, and listened to my direction (just what a photographer wants).
They may not have come out the way I intended, but I really like the end result.
I called this set outer space history because the photos were taken on a 35mm camera which made the photos look like they were captured in the 60/70's and because of something wrong with the film it caused discoloration, mostly red sparks, which reminded me and my teacher of aliens/mars and I combined the two theories and named this collection Outer Space History.
