Well, I am now officially a student with OCA, yet again. I have signed up for the Documentary module on Friday and I am now very eager to start with the program. I am catching the last moments of freedom and playing today with some gums, cyanotypes and scanner again. Here is my moving forward photo! Here we go again!

Not much happened since my last post. I am still recovering after my op, it really does take a long time to get better after such serious surgery.
I have been experimenting with gums and cyanotypes, the results are still at a very experimental level, but I will happily post some examples.
As August is now coming to an end, I have to sign up for my next course with OCA. I have been struggling to decide on the course, as whatever I choose at this point, it will heavily shape my photographic future. After a time of some serious consideration, I decided to go for 'Documentary photography' instead of 'Gesture and Meaning'. As much as I would like to learn more about the human body, study closely portraiture and advertising, I think documentary could finally help me find myself in photography and ground me to a specific genre. And should I miss more creative approach, I can always carry on with my dillydally projects in my spare time.

I attach some pics from my camera-less experimentations, captured with a scanner.
