Photos from Cannes & the 14th


I got my photos back from Cannes, the 14th as well as the fete de la musique the other day. While taking them I wasn't too sure about how I felt about them. When I got them back there were actually some that I really liked and others that I was just ok with. There was one of them that I could really like but there was someone's head in the way. All in all I think that my roles were well used. I liked both the black and white and the color ones.

Bastille Day!

Woke up early and went to see the parade in the morning to see what might be interesting to take photos of. It was a little difficult because there were so many people and not really anything that I wanted to photograph. There were a few photos that I took but I'm not expecting too much from. That night I went to see the fireworks after work, I finished late and could not make it to the Champs de Mars and thought I would take this as an opportunity to see them from a different angle. I started at the Louvre but could not see very well and started moving down towards Place de Concord. I think that I got some good photos all up and down the river but we will see. I used Kodak 400vc and Ilford B&W 3200. the light gauge on the B&W camera was acting funny so I'm not sure if they will come out.

I dropped off the film today, including the trip to Cannes.
Will get them back Monday

Cannes

Last week I took a trip down to Cannes for the weekend, because I have never been there and also because I felt that I had to leave Paris for a few days. I brought my camera with me and too a few pictures, but not many. We'll see how they turn out. I still have the photos from the Fete de la Musique to get developed as well.
