It all starts with

a roll of Ectocrome 400 Tri-X film,

a 35mm camera,

and an idea.

Using filters, lights,

and lenses can enhance

the shot but only use

the right amount.

Click, flash;

the moment will be saved

forever, stuck in time.

Taking a few photos,

when not trying too hard

might get a

perfect shot.

Next, the roll of film

needs developed

in a darkroom with red lights.

On RC Pearl Resein coated 3

light sensitive paper

the photograph is

printed using

the negatives.

But if the

light sensitive paper

is exposed to light

captured moment

will turn black as onyx.

Gently place the paper

in a vessel of

Kodak D-76 film developer

to bring it to life.

Kodak fixer solution is next.

It prevents the paper

from looking like a 1960s’

faded photograph.

Wash the chemicals

off with cold distilled water

and your moment

in time is finished.

Will forever be more than a memory?

I’m from the music
Flowing throughout the house.
I am “A Trophy Father’s Trophy Son”
Whispering “I Hope You Dance”.

I am the fight I still regret,
Screaming “I hate you!”.
The words bouncing off the walls.
I’m from the day he passed away,
Still crying but never forgetting.
I am the night I knocked on death’s door,
Wanting to throw it all away.

May 18th 2008 is where I’m from,
She is the most beautiful
Thing ever created.
My Hope Ann.

I am the imagination,
From the forts to the adventuring.
I am the candy and mountain dew
That gave me energy,
To keep up with my imagination.
I am the spaghetti I ate all the time
But now despise.

I’m from Spongebob and Rugrats
And many more cartoons.
I am the Little Vampire.
I’m from the Magic Tree house
But never read any.
I am a Barbie doll
Change outfit after outfit.
I’m from the Light Bright
That kept me from dying of boredom.

I am the “RAWR! Imma eat you” moments
To the “stop it!”
I come from,
“I’m proud to be your mother!”
