I can relate. For the whole drive home, I thought it was Wednesday.

This Aidan supports Nadias! Nice work!

Omfg, we don’t want explanations, we just want once ounce of accountability for Trump’s repeated and obviously lawless actions.

Nice! I see the occasional pileated around my house, but I haven’t ever seen them at the feeder.

…and the cats are here for the birds

I know right!? 😂 I can’t predict (nor do I try) what the people want, but cats and birds are often well received.

Beautiful portrait too!

Thanks! I did some minor tweaking of exposure and highlights afterwards, but Olympus really had things dialed in 2003. 😎

Catlike food behavior: if it’s 50% full, that means it’s empty.

Overall, I love my lil 35. I do not, however, love the crunchy winding mechanism that always feels like it’s going to break or rip the film. Every one I’ve ever tested feels the same way. Mint even carried that same crunchiness forward into the 35 AF.

I think you must have meant to say “illegal decisions made in Washington by a man who thinks he’s above the law.”

Done! Juniper says “mrrrk”

It’s loooooong past time for the first ever RICO-impeachment, followed by swift removal and life sentence for Trump and his fellow criminals. Your constituents are so done with this shit.

Oh no… is this a hardware issue?

I’m so sorry. 😔

Nah. We’re way past that. He needs to be removed from office yesterday for his continued flagrant disdain for the constitution.

Hey, what’s your name?

I promise this is the last roll that was totally destroyed by the airport CT scanner. I was expecting the Portra 400 to be less affected than the Portra 800, but it seems just as bad. Meanwhile, the damage to the XP2 is barely noticeable.

While out eating lunch, I overheard a guy saying he just won the Fast&Furious Vintage award for his NSX. I told him I was pretty sure I got a photo on film. Last night I got the scans back and I finally sent him this photo. Congrats Joe!

The left edge has a strip of black, with some light leaking around the edges. Two thin lines show the edges of the unexposed film crossing the frame horizontally at an angle.

A jagged-edged very light blue shape comes in from the left side, probably tape. A rounded rectangular outline sits on the right side, all on a background of white.

Omg Saul! 😍 I should have specified: expose for the white furs (when present), otherwise expose for the void.

It is a hefty brick!

Which 400? Delta, HP5, XP2?

Not too often. Usually when it does close, it’s for falling ice.
