Do you ever develop your 365 photos?

May 7th, 2013
I did for the first time last night and was pleasantly surprised! - So fun. I developed a few that had made the popular page but was surprised that I actually preferred a couple of obscure photos in my project. I would like to share a couple and I would love to see yours!

I just started developing black and white film two months ago. I took this with an old folding camera.

Don't develop them because they'd just sit in a box not looked at. That is why I joined 365...wanted to take all the wonderful things I see and didn't know what to do with them. I have used some of my photos and enlarged them on canvas and hung them. I see them everyday now and enjoy them. I am thinking I'd like to do another set of my photos like that for an entrance hall wall.

Thanks to 365 and some fantastically helpful people I developed colour for the first time. I've been doing b&w for years but was always too nervous to try colour. Turns out it was really simple and I've done about 12 rolls from one kit - for the price to get 2 or 3 done at a lab ! Here's one from my first roll

Since I'm not as strict about posting every day now, I don't any more. During my first year though, it was a big motivator to develop the pictures every time I finished a month. Now I have them all in an album, with copies of the captions I wrote for each one. This project can be daunting sometimes, and it's nice to have a physical reminder of all the work you put into it!

@megmills What a fantastic idea! - I would like to try the canvas thing as well.

@elizabeth264 I don't develop film....so far I have ordered canvas prints and just recently on aluminum.....

@ingrid2101 Love this! Fav.

@kelsi87 I agree! I had literally never developed them before last night and I was so tickled.. like "Oh, this is why I do this! "

I developed some recently to send to my father who lives in another country. He was interested to see what I was taking s he used to do a lot of photography when he was younger. He is not on the internet and at 80 doesn't want to be..so I snail mailed them to him.

I've just started using an old om20 film slr. Just got my third film developed today. Heres a shot from the very first roll i got developed. It is really nice to do film rather than digital for a while

@elizabeth264 Yay! Haha enjoy!

@bristolrose I bet he was thrilled! Beautiful doggie!!!

@welcometocarolworld ooh what did u think of the aluminum?
May 7th, 2013
I've had some made into canvas for my wall, calendars for friends, Christmas cards, and a photo book from my vacation.

@elizabeth264 I love aluminium. I've got both colour and b&w photos printed on aluminium, they look crisp and colurful.
May 7th, 2013
@elizabeth264 Love aluminum......but not all pics look best frameless or without a mat.

Hi, I created a coffee table album for people to look at. Really good project and you can limit the number of photos you print by the size of the album you buy

@primitiveprobe @welcometocarolworld @welcometocarolworld I've never heard of aluminum....what does it look like when done and where do you order them from?
May 7th, 2013
I tend to print photos of birds that I like. I have a couple of albums which consist purely of birds.
May 7th, 2013
I ordered from http://www.fullcolor.com

I just purchased a groupon from a Chicago company: http://aluminyze.com so I can compare them.

The photo goes all the way to the edge, and there is no frame or mat. They are very thin, and hang away from the wall about an inch. It gives you a feel of glass in the finish. That's the simplest way to explain it. It's amazing. @megmills

I also do photo books. That is a great way to organize your 365 project, or just a bird book, or a nature book. I made one of my trip to New Orleans with my sister, and it made her cry. @elizabeth264 @megmills

@elizabeth264
I have lots of prints on my walls and I have gifted prints to family, friends and even a hospice. This is hanging in my bedroom at the moment with 2 others. I have gifted books as well and I have a book of my fave shots

I have developed some and ended up having an "artist showing" at my church for this month...I guess I better photo what it looks like. I do love making some of my art into gifts for friends and family too!
May 7th, 2013
@cookie123 Gorgeous! @welcometocarolworld Thanks for the info!! I will give that a try!
May 11th, 2013
@httpgeffed I would like to see your showing. Maybe only in photo as I dont have a trip coming up.

Here is my display

I've developed some that I absolutely love! The black and white one of Hazel was a favorite. In fact I'm going to make some large prints for father's day.
May 27th, 2013
@sgoodin1 Hi Nape! Are you nuts? How did you find this old conversation? Why don't you post the picture that you are speaking of here?
May 27th, 2013
@httpgeffed Awesome display!!
May 31st, 2013
@elizabeth264 Not sure how I found it. Just poking around 365.
