Kodak HQ in Rochester with the Jiffy Six-20 II who's bellows pinholes couldn't have been /that/ bad. (they were, in fact, much worse) #shittycamerachallenge #believeinfilm
Finally getting around to scanning a couple of recent darkroom prints. Jordan Lake, NC - Hasselblad 500CM / 50mm f/4 Distagon / Ilford SFX 200 / Red Filter on Ilford MGIV
Post a perfect album from the '90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice In Chains
Realized I packed my oldest (Kodak Jiffy II, ~1937) and newest (Nikon Z30, 2022) in the same bag.
We were planning to start our drive up to Western NY today but the wildfire smoke...yeah. Going to punt on that for a day.
The 4th of July has felt weird for a while - doesn't seem like we've been doing a very good job of being celebration-worthy as a nation. But we can at least celebrate community. The neighborhood where I grew up has been holding a parade for 75+ years, these are from last year.
I always forget how refreshing getting caught in a mid-ride downpour on a 90+ summer day can be.
Anyone want some old Kodak black and white paper? The 8x10s seem perfectly serviceable, the 11x14 has a touch of base fog but probably usable. Yours for the cost of shipping.
To salve my 620 day fail, took the ‘blad out to what is normally a lake. First time shooting Ilford SFX, overcooked it a bit but should have usable negatives.
Finally getting around to trying the dry plates I bought more months ago than I care to admit.
The helicoid key had broken off completely, I somehow managed to fashion a new one that seems to work out of 3.5mm brass stock from Amazon.
This is a cat checkpoint. Relinquish your most recent cat picture!
Latest thrift shop find, it’s in very rough shape and quite broken, but for $4.00 it’ll make a fun project.
A glimmer of good news for film shooters, at least in the near term.
My new Shitty Camera has arrived from headquarters. #shittycamerachallenge
Local gallery selling off old camera shop’s inventory. I was restrained and only have two new to me Nikon bodies.
Around the neighborhood. Leica CL on Portra 400. #believeinfilm #filmphotography #eastcoastkin

If you see this, post the most recent photo of yourself from your camera roll.
Works quite well for something I cooked up in 10 minutes with stuff laying around the house. #pinholeday #polaroidweek #folderweek
