I heart slide film

So, here are a few shots from the last roll of film.. Again, I am having motivation issues!! Aw man. So the every week post thing isn't really happening for me, but I am still going to try.. Enjoy some of these random shots over the last month. Again, I need to find some friends over the age of two..

I Can't Keep Up!

Soooooooo... Once again I took longer than a week.. I just get wrapped up in the day to day (like a sucker, haha), but that's the reason I made this blog.. To keep on myself and keep on taking photos..

I tried some experimenting with my new Diana (medium format camera) and Diana external flash.. I had a little tough time with gauging the focal ability of the camera, so I didn't do as well as I had hoped, but it's all a learning experience... So the black and white shots are from my ol' faithful Holga and the last two color shots were from my new Diana.. 

Holland's famous attitude

Pocket Protector

Typical San Fran

Guard Dog??

Emily

Hattie Mouth (a mistake shot, but I sort of dig it)

So, these aren't my best shots by any means, but it was an experiment and I learned, so no harm in that!

Wonder-Con 2009

So, it was that time again!  My friend Chris Mowry (Transformers Comic Book writer extraordinaire) hooked it up as usual with all-weekend long passes for myself and Aaron. So much geeky fun to be had!! And it was.. Although it was a very rainy weekend, we managed and had lots of fun.. 

I got a super cute book for Miss Hattie for her birthday (not til June) And I got myself a really cool book called Looking Glass Wars which is supposed to be a sort of "pre-Wonderland" Alice story.. Chris also gave me an awesome "Spike" hardback comic book! So sweet (see pics)

So here are some goofy candids with my mini-digi-cam:

And here are some fun black and white 35mm shots of the festivities of the whole Wonder-Con weekend. Enjoy!

Mars Bar, Tommy's Joynt and other San Francisco stuff

Not much to report, other than I have posted three posts in a few days time so I'm proud of that! Yay! Here are a few shots from my new/replacement 35mm Canon.. It was not so fun having to re-purchase something I already had but, sadly, lost.. But it sure feels good to have the replacement.

(Photos shot with Ilford HP5) This film has been my staple since high school, but I'm starting not to dig it as much as I used to.... Might be time for a change..

Wonder-Con Blog coming in the near future...

Holga Woes

So tonight I picked up a couple of rolls of film that I had processed and scanned.. And I realized..I am crooked.. Crooked as in off-centered, not crooked as in twisted/manipulative.. ha.. Maybe it was my foot surgery gone wrong, or maybe it's the squareness that is medium format.. But I never used to have this problem and now I do.. 

So it makes me think, I'm just crooked.. Or my depth perception is going.. I have been having trouble parallel parking lately.. Aw Man! I think I'm just old.. Well, here they go anyways:

Aaaand enter the crookedness that is me:

   Yup, I'm all wonky

           Oh wait, I'm normal again
