Cruelty covered by a thin veil of ideology and wrapped in a shroud of greed. DS and the UCP are beneath contempt.

Lovely! I have a number of Fujinon XF lenses, including the 23mm f2 WR. The all perform extremely well. Those that know, know.

Congratulations! 12 years of retirement for me on December 31, 2025; one of my better decisions. Enjoy!

I cancelled my subscription after two years and have been regretting it ever since. It might be time to sign up again.

The same to you, dear friend. I hope the new year treats you so much better than the one we will leave behind. ๐Ÿค—

Of course they did! The UCP are beneath contempt.

This feels like Stoney Hill. It is such a beautiful place.

What have they done this time? Does it have anything to do with the orange shit gibbon?

โ€œVividโ€ from the @photozinecoll.bsky.social arrived today.
So into colour photography these days (only because I now make RA4 prints) so lovely to see others work in print. All to a great cause as well.

Curious to know what you think of this. I have the 28mm 3.5.

I couldn't care less about decorating for Christmas, but my better half thinks otherwise. My middle name should be bah-humbug, but WTF! I have zero religious convictions, an atheist in fact. It's now nothing but rampant commercial exploitation.

My copy arrived yesterday. Only had a brief time to look through it; excellent work. I love the presentation and binding. Hopefully, I will be able to immerse myself in Marcโ€™s photographs tomorrow.

I rinse my gloved hands first to remove any chemical. The gloves are cheap and I can get at least 3 or 4 uses out of them.

I used squeegee for a while but It would scratch my film sometimes. Now I wear disposable nitrile gloves when developing. When I remove the film from the wetting agent I gently wipe it by passing it between a couple of my gloved fingers. It does not remove all the liquid but it works.

Showing her true colours in a government that has no time for arts, culture or the status of women. I always laugh when these moroons trip up.

My go-to camera store here on Vancouver Island; thoroughly recommended. They are good people! I am not looking for another 35mm camera so will pass on this one. They do ship.

Back in July, I photographed an outdoor performance of Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors on behalf of the Cowichan Public Art Gallery. The play was presented by The Shawnigan Players and took place in the garden of the gallery. Yes, it is a comedy. Fujifilm X-Pro2
