Two Years Past

That was forever ago.

63 tomorrow

"Arroz con pollo, what're you having?"

More things should have been done today. I took some rockstar time at the Pepsi Center for the season opener of the Crush, Arena Football League. A sweet suite with a fridge loaded with beer. Big thanks to Kyle and Annie for the invite. Better than finishing the dishes.

Painting tonight though. water? hmmm.

Allright

holy mother this is a big negative. it's like a scary cross of a pinole, slight panoramic, wide-angle holga style gu'ness! Thanks, Grampa.

Felt good to accomplish something. More to come on the hanging of a salon style show with hopefully more photogs than just BCD and I. Smash em all - coat the walls. Would be good to see what people did with their month of the darkroom.

Proof

With 200 speed Agfa RSX, I blew out nearly every shot.

The length of a shot must be roughly 1.5 times that of a normal 120 frame as I overlapped everything. The scanner at the lab misinterpreted almost every cut. This is the fun of analog!

What? it doesn't sound all that fun? It's easier to just say it then try to explain why I would be anxious to put another roll through it right now. I might not have ever seen that particular crop without the machina playing it's tricks. Why do some things appear wildly out of focus? Is the speed really 1/60? It seems to be a little sticky. Can't really blame a camera made in the 30's can I? These questions are why I could never give up (learning)film. The unknown has challenged me -again.

This means that I can shoot inside with this, effectively, a pinhole!

I thought I'd send 'proof of concept'.

For Matias, who probably already saw it.
