There's an entire story behind this.

First off, it's a film shot, and coming from a digital photographer that's like saying this was pieced together by hand or something. xD Took it with a 2nd hand 40 buck Ricoh camera on TMAX 3200 film which was donated by a teacher and therefore 2 years expired and "fresh" out of a freezer. Developed it with help (and the adrenaline of sheer panic) in our crappy school darkroom, which means the timings got read wrongly so we developed it four minutes less than we should have. Used chemicals that were only a year expired, and washed the film down with Mama Lemon handsoap before sticking it into a dryer that was so old the thermometre was stuck on 10 dC the entire time and you had to sniff at it to make sure the film wasn't burning.

The paper we developed on was also expired. 8D

At the end of the day, a little underexposed, but ALIVE. I feel like a real amateur now, instead of a pretend one!11!

Interesting story behind it : D It looks pretty aged, like one of those classic photos. It's a good picture :D
