Monet in Venice was an excellent exhibit: lots of interesting context, influences, and contemporaries, plus, like, Monet. he was cranking them OUT in 1908!

inside a museum gallery with one of Monet's "The Palazzo Ducale" (1908) on a wall in the left foreground. on the right, the gallery continues into the distance with people viewing more Monets.

for @jasonxbergman.com, Mel Ramos's superb "Superman" (1962)

vertical painting of Superman standing in a featureless taupe background. he's made heavy layers of paint that give his muscles and clothes definition. it's a front quarter perspective of him as he looks to one side with a closed mouth and flat expression. his arms are straight down with clenched fists; he looks tense.

went to the de Young and TRANSITIONAL ROTHKO Y'ALL!

a painting: Untitled by Mark Rothko, 1949. it is a vertical canvas painted with rough rectangular shapes in olive green, yellow, and mustard yellow over larger rectangular shapes in shades of pale pink and warm brown. it is similar to his famous style, but softer color and more varied shapes.

it's also set in an alternate timeline where the Axis won the war. the hero cop carries an MG42 and wears armor strongly influenced by the (ahem) WWII-era German Army.

Jin Roh movie poster with the main character silhouetted by the moon. he's holding an MG42 and wearing heavy armor with a helmet very reminiscent of WWII-era German Army helmets.

Austin Route Zero i roasted this Portra 400 (sigh) by accidentally developing at twice the time (double sigh). the negatives are very dense and i thought they'd be useless, but they're workable despite the high contrast and color balance. Pentax 645NII + Portra 400 #photography #filmphotography

a statue of a winged horse rising above the silhouette of trees in the background; the sky is deep dusk blue. the horse is rearing up with its wings extending up and out. the head and front wing are in silhouette, while the rest is lit from below by long light blue neon tubes that run around its legs.

no, really, it was wet - and this was after the morning's *big* downpour! we're committed to this fight. standing in some rain isn't the worst thing we'll face. our allies are committed enough to stand in the rain with us. we can weather the storm.

narrative? levels? no, the real magic of Dishonored 2's design was having to select a UI font and going with "all of them."

the game's five main menu items; each one is a different font or typeface

thankfully seems to have been downgraded to "hot"

show me a cool physical game the boxes for Spectre (1991) were so damn cool, and looked totally appropriate for battling pyramidal enemies in a vast vector space photo from this in-depth article on the packaging designer, Hock Wah Yeo: obscuritory.com/essay/incred...

the box for Spectre: a tall trapezoidal teal slab with a shallow pyramid of satin black plastic sticking out the front. along the bottom and side are "SPECTRE" in a stylized futuristic font.

Costa Mesa night life Pentax 645NII + CineStill 800T #photography

looking down the short side hall of a restaurant's kitchen, lined with shelves loaded with boxes, bottles, and bags. down the hall is an open door to the kitchen, and halfway down is a person sitting in a chair; their body is obscured, only showing legs and arms holding a phone. the fluorescent light has a greenish tint.

inside a humble bar lined with lit beer signs. packed in the middle are three pool tables with lights hanging over them, casting blue-green light around. the nearest pool table has a bald light-skinned man holding a cue upright and squatting to eye-level with the table and intently eyeing the cue ball. in the foreground is a booth win a man wearing a baseball cap.

hot damn that's some cinema the director's cut is so good, too, basically just for this one scene

ranch life Red Rock, TX Pentax 645NII + Tri-X 400 #photography

a line of cows stands around grass and a gravel road in front of a line of dark trees. in the middle is a white cow looking straight at the camera; to the left are a large dark cow with a calf nearby also facing the camera. to the right are three cows looking to the side; one is a white cow licking the shoulder of a black cow.

the other way home Red Rock, TX Pentax 645NII + Tri-X 400 #photography

under a cloudy sky, a gravel country road sweeps from the bottom of the frame to the right, then to the left and straight to the center of the frame. the road winds around a field of light grass and heads to a gap in a dark line of trees where the sun is setting.

thread of photos from a buddy's place... ranch shadow Red Rock, TX Pentax 645NII + Tri-X 400 #photography

black & white shot looking down a rutted dirt road running straight through brush and short trees. a bit down the middle of the road stands a young white cow perpendicular to the camera. it's nearing dusk with a cloudy sky overhead.

how about the dapper @hays.fyi, showing us game devs that class & comfort aren't exclusive. the Hilton Costa Mesa's atrium is nicely bright and open. it's also a touch... SoCal hyperreal? like you can't have *too* large of a space without some palm trees. #photography

Chris Hays, a white man with round red-framed glasses and a salt-and-pepper mustache, smiles at the camera. he's standing outside a hotel's windows with plants nearby; he's wearing a white fedora with brown band and small feathers, a beige linen (or rough silk?) blazer, a terracotta knit button-up shirt, light linen slacks, brown square-pointed loafers, and a white cloth shoulder bag.

looking from halfway up a tall, bright hotel atrium. there are wooden slat overhangs covering several areas and glass pod elevator rises on the right. in the middle is a palm tree.

some nice 120 photos from Costa Mesa, including a pretty dang good portrait of @jesawyer.bsky.social i mistakenly shot this Portra 400 at 100, so had it developed -1 to meed it in the middle. the overexposure is great in sun, but colors veer off indoors. Pentax 645NII + Portra 400 #photography

Josh Sawyer, a middle aged white man with silvering hair and rounded tortoiseshell glasses, smiles at the camera. it's daytime on a cafe's patio.

under a sunny blue sky, three palm tress rise on the right side of the frame. there are wispy clouds at the top, while at the bottom is a layer of darker clouds,

the tight, repeated grid of hotel balconies extend into the distance under golden sunlight. the photo is through windows, and more golden light is reflected from walls behind the camera.

looking down at a brown carpet with a floral pattern, in the lower right is a woman wearing a blue-green dress and light yellow hijab. she's moving in a blur past a tall circular table with nearby tripod and a camera with a large white lense. in the upper left corner is a drape of dark red cloth.

fenced in outside the White House (May 2020) Sony a77 #photography

black & white photo of a lawn with trees in the background. a temporary crowd fence splits the photo, and behind it are three guards in riot gear. several ribbons of plastic "POLICE LINE DO NOT CROSS" tape runs from left to right; one of them obscures the faces of all three guards.

we'll see how the 6x4.5 Portra 800 shots worked out. in the meantime, here's offhand with the Sony A7 IV and 45mm. i love the deep tint of the atmosphere: purple buildings' majesty. #photography

a wide shot of Austin's skyline from a distance, with a wide dusk-blue sky over it and golden light on the horizon. there's a scattering of grey clouds right over the tallest building.
