A few more samples in case you need more convincing!

Recently I took out the #Tamron #NikonZ Mount 35-150mm f2-2.8 lens and gave it a go.

After using it for hours in #DowntownPortland, I’m convinced, it might just be the best all around #travel / #street photo lens. My only complaint is the weight, but with a lens that fast…it’s gonna be a bit heavy.

Downtown Los Angeles, October 2024.

Do you have a Widelux too?

Part of my job is to provide #technicalphotographiclighting knowledge/assistance at workshops and themed shoots here in #Portland.

But that usually means I get to make some images of the models too! Here’s one of Nathaniel as the #madhatter from #aliceinwonderland.

Using this platform to share my photography. Just didn’t care for the idea that my eye, my art, was gonna be used to train AI (amongst other reasons to invest less time on other platforms).

Cairo Foster, right?

A classic from a while ago.

#GoldiniBagwell of the #Sandpeople ( #PortlandOR hip hop supergroup) at his favorite bar, Roscoe’s.

I believe I shot this on my #Mamiya645afd and some good ol’ #ilfordHP5+.

Yeah. For sure. I suppose with a stronger mist filter I could have gotten more halation in the digital image. Maybe I’ll have to do a one-to-one side by side test!

In comparison to my last post, here’s a #photograph of another late night pizza shop in #portland made on actual #cinestill800t #film. This was taken on a #35mm #canon #canonetg3ql17

What do you think? Digital or film? Which do you prefer? Comment⬇️

Late night pizza by the slice.

Another conference trip in #September2024 to #Indy (Indianapolis).

I love being able to drop film sim jpgs straight to my phone. This was the #fujixweekly #cinestill800t recipe.

😂🤣😂🤣

At least a third of those on this list also donated to Trump’s campaign or the 2025 project tho. Fuck this shit is confusing…I’m just trying to shop responsibly on my not so large budget!

Oh no!!!

🤣😂🤣😂

What fisheye are you using @julianblank.bsky.social ?

A few times a year I have to go to conferences for my job. I always try to get out to make #photos when I can during these trips. Here’s one from last #August2024 on #fremontstreet in #lasvagas. It was triple digits during the day and low 90s at night. #streetphotography #streetperformers #nikonzf

With the recent developments on other social platforms, like many of you, I’m here to try out BlueSky as a form of creative expression and community.

I’m a photographer, a photo educator, and marketing specialist. I’d love to connect with other artist and friends here to support each other!
