Spring Magnolias
Surprise! C-41 (specifically, Fuji Pro 160S), from the Diacord L. Yes, this one’s really from the Diacord L. The surprise is that I managed to develop this in my basement.…

Hurry
So, you may recall my saying recently that another camera was on the way. That was a 1958 Ricoh Diacord L (not to be confused with the Diacord G, which…

Friends 3
Okay, finally winding down on the St. Patty’s Day shots. I think I’ll pick something new for tomorrow – it looks like I’ve got a lot of potential shots waiting…

Friends 1
Okay, I think I’m winding down on the posts from St. Patty’s in Jim Thorpe. Before I finish, I have a set of good “Friends” shots that I want to…

Smokin’ and Drinkin’
Ilford HP5+, EI800. On the Diacord G, whose shutter froze on me today. I think I’ve unstuck it – something related to the flash select lever (M/X) is binding, but…

Exhale
Tomorrow, back to film shots! I just spent an hour playing with benzotriazole (an anti-fog additive) and 1976 Verichrome Pan. Not a good experience; the benzotriazole apparently retarded the development…

Vices
From St. Patty’s in Jim Thorpe: Sheila leads her troupe of shot-givers. With style. Sadly, I shot this at ISO 3200 on my 5D, not having reset the camera from…

88th
Shot on Ilford HP5, EI 800, at the Jim Thorpe St. Patty’s Day parade. I’ll have a few more shots of these guys. The insignia on this guy’s backpack really…

Finally – some new material! And in droves. Last weekend was the annual St. Patty’s parade in Jim Thorpe, PA. This year I shot both film and digital, and have…

Monsoon Season
From Drexel’s campus yesterday morning. Seems like Monsoon Season is upon us in Philadelphia – an insane deluge is coming down right now, accompanied with hellacious winds. Our road and…

Ryan
Saw a tweet from a friend today – she’s having issues with some child’s-school-related thing, and I thought I’d dig up a shot to cheer her up a bit. From…

Signs of Life
Fighting an awful cold, but it gave me a chance to snap this one in our back yard today. Not only were the snow drops poppin’, but the Diacord G…

Travelers
Still working on framing with this camera; it’s a 1947 Bessa 66, and I find it more difficult to frame close-up shots than I do with the 1938 version. Hand-held…

Grunge Birthday
From today – a shot from my Voigtländer Brillant, a TLR-like camera from the early 1930s. As you can see, the film feedl is badly damaging the emulsion. You can’t…

Plowing
A few more coming from Snowpocalypse 3. And then I suspect I’ll have some more film scans – just developed my first two rolls of 120 film (ever). Neopan 400…
