Portals

I spent a considerable amount of time on this assignment. The focus was portals, anything that seemed to be a doorway or passage leading towards something else. I went to the Downtown Mall to shoot this roll, and got some pretty good results.

This picture turned out nicely, but was probably the least related to the subject of the roll.

I really liked how this picture turned out. The lighting and contrast was difficult to deal with in the darkroom because the interior where the reflection is is much darker than the brick wall surrounding the glass.

I like this picture simply because it's an example of both an open and closed portal. The roll was mean to focus on both and I liked how this picture shows both.

This print turned into a very nice hand-colored print. I like it because you can see into the doorway and see the stairs leading away from the door, but you cannot see where the stairs go. Even though this is an example of an open portal, what lies beyond it is still unclear.
