I've been wanting to photograph my guitar for a while, because I took a photo of it a long time ago at night school and I really liked the effect.
It's a Takamine TF241DLX and I'm a weekend hacker with it and not very good. It's black though which made it quite tricky to light, and I spent a LOT of time with a digital camera trying to get the lighting right. My digital shots, I deleted before developing the film. Go me.
Typically, of the ten frames, only 4 came out. I have no idea why. None of the full length body shots came out which makes me wonder if there's an issue with the 90mm lens as the 180mm was used for the last few shots which were fine.
The composition above is slightly off on the (camera) RH edge. Instead of either including the edge, or cropping it, I kinda went halfway which isn't ideal and leaves the RH side looking a little sloppy. I also wanted to include the rebate but because I didn't get the image straight, it had to go in post.. The second shot (below) includes the rebate and deals with the RH edge a little better but doesn't have the strength of composition I was looking for.
And man... the dust...
