Evaluation - Medium Format

This wasn't the first time that I had experience using medium format black and white film so it meant that I knew my way around the camera and I felt pretty confident when shooting and processing the film.  This being said I did run into some slight problems what turned out to be nothing more that careless mistakes on my part.

I feel a little let down with myself when it comes to this project because I like to finish things that I start. But I feel due to an ambitious self-directed project it didn't leave time to come back and revisit the medium format work. this is a shame as I think that with more time and a better direction to take my work I could have produced some really nice prints as in the black and white darkroom is where I feel most at home. 

Another reason I feel I let myself down in this project is that there are so many amazing photographers who produce medium format work out there and I feel I didn't even scratch the surface with research. This is again something that I could have delved deeper into with time.

Overall I think that I produced an adequate amount of work for this project considering it got abandoned not long after getting started. This being said I would have still liked to have produced the 9 final prints as a personal goal as I like to complete what I start.
