A picnic table and two benches sit in front of a tree on a snow-covered riverbank. A railroad bridge and more trees are visible on the horizon.

Haven't been shooting much lately but managed to get out and run a roll of Arista 400 through the Holga a few days ago doing some double-exposures. 🎞️ #believeinfilm

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971)
Now You See Him, Now You Don't (1972)

It being the 1970s, my parents let me and my friends walk to the theater by ourselves when we were as young as seven.

Rewatched fairly recently and still loved it. Wise is such an underrated director.

From a few years ago at an abandoned Westinghouse factory in Cleveland. There's a human in there if you look carefully.

Saw Chung present Munyurangabo in person in 2010 at Ebertfest and thought that he was a filmmaker to watch in the future.

Botched the development of these Kentmere 100 shots from Hidden Valley Lake and Clear Lake in California. Looks like I didn't have enough dev in the tank.
