Difficult to want to post shots I'm proud of here when they often get randomly missed by the automated photography feeds.

Hammocks hung between sparse beach trees

Cute dog in golden hour light

You've absolutely put more thought into this than I have. Glad you like it

Purple film photo of old industrial buildings turned into a park. A person jogs in front.

Similar to the previous, but depicting a crowd of acro yogis

Surreal landscape of a purple hill, with people about, and the city skyline in the background.

My long dormant love of Lomo Purple has reawoken

I still haven't figured out the cause. Usually I just try again in a different browser, or wait and try again.
I should probably report it to support.

Looks like they didn't upload. Bsky does this to me all the time :/

Black and white photo of the interior of a restaurant. A long row of neatly set tables is mirrored above by an equally long row of unique hanging lights.

Recently reprocessed this shot with my current color negative workflow. The new revision feels more true to life, and more accurate to the stock.

Definitely a much warmer look though, and it changes the feel significantly.

I was used to a <1 week wait for scans at my original lab in Seattle (not Panda), but the quality was lacking and now I'm all home scan.
Scanning definitely seems to be Panda's bottleneck. They usually get my dev only orders done in < 48hrs

Black and white photo of a young store employee crouching down in front of the store and digging into the sidewalk brickwork with a screwdriver.

A man wearing semi-formal clothes sitting on a park bench. He looks like he's had a rough day, and is hunched over, pinching his forehead with one hand, while staring at his phone in the other.

Black and white photo of a storefront in Vancouver's Chinatown. Many goods are on display, with hand written signs labeling each.

Black and white photo of tourists in Vancouver's gas-town. Yeah, that is basically it. This photo sucks. I think I just like the way the film rendered the striped outfit and woven tote bag. Is that so wrong?

Trying to shoot street in Vancouver, but I'm no Fred Herzog.

Black and white photo, tightly zoomed into the side of a curved high-rise apartment building. The edges of the building cannot be seen, just endless rows of balconies.

A photo of three glass sided high-rises being built across from a channel of ocean water. Cranes appear next to each building.

Cool, now do the voice!

Black and white photo shot between the branches of several trees. Two people stand on an unseen platform in the trees, as the young man in the foreground points something out. IDK, I just really like the "tonez" on this one.

Portrait orientation punched in crop of the prior image to show detail.

Close up black and white photo of a DIY mushroom grow kit. A lump of unknown black mass has sprouted a wealth of mushrooms. A sign behind the mass reads "Grow at Home Kit"

Mushrooms enlarged to show detail, because there really isn't any other value to this photo beyond "Hey, isn't it cool how close up I can get with this close-up filter!"

It's the Whatcom museum in Bellingham, WA

Black and White photo of a storefront. A young employee is on break, smoking a cigarette and reading a newspaper while learned up against the wall. Opposite of him, a young child looks through the storefront window. A distracting backpack man is cut off on the right side of the frame. I waited so long hoping he'd move, but he just kept doddling there! I had to take the shot before my subjects shifted! I tried to crop him out, but it ruined the comp even worse. A pox on this man's backpack!

A low angle shot of a crowd at an LA night-market. The subject of the shot is a triplet: a young girl in a strawberry hat and pastel dress, her loyal dog, and (presumed) father. Many other distracting people are also in frame, ruining my brilliant composition.

Don't ask me, I'm just trying to take pretty pictures! I appreciate the unexpected naval intelligence crossover though.

Love these! Glad you decided to post.
