Even the nicer Kroger stores really feel like they’re trying to beat out CVS for the bleakest, most dehumanizing shopping experience since Office Depot circa 2008.

Bonus advice: if you dev at home or bulk roll, you have used canisters sitting around. Cut your film leader square and loosely tape it to the extra film from one, and put 120 adapters on both canisters. That way, when you’re finished, you can unload your camera in the light.

Turns out 1.25 winds is about right. Distance between frames changes slightly over the roll, but only slightly.

The Lubitel (at least the Soviet onesβ€”I don’t know about the Lomography remake) does too. gaff tape the HELL out of that window!

I’ve done sprockets on my Holga too; seems obvious, but winding for a 6x6 frame is the same horizontally and vertically, if it’s a direct wind of the spool.

An abandoned theater marquee. It says β€œLamar”. The colors are saturated primary colors, and the sprockets of the film it was shot on are visible.

Around this time last year, I bought a lot of expired Portra 160nc 120 rolls, not realizing that they had been kept at room temperature, unwrapped, for at least 20 years. I shot my way through full half of them before figuring out that I needed to be metering this stuff at 25 ISO.

Oh, I’d love that. I’ve just got that bog standard 55mm, but it’s a legend. It took a fall last week, and Its fine, but I still ordered a replacement immediately.

I bought a spotmatic just to see what my Helios 44/2 looked like on film, and I absolutely adore it.

Funny how the 2000’s β€œwake up sheeple” folks became the same ones who think β€œwoke” is a bad thing.

Glad they’re getting some sleep these days, I guess.

Mike Lee tweets "name a fascist dictator whose agenda entailed limit the size cost and power of government."

Elon quote tweeted it with a laugh emoji and an arrow hitting a bullseye emoji.

Perhaps if he had not spent so much time playing video games so that he could be the #1 video game player he would know that the answer to this question is "All of them."

Ran a test of Fomapan 400 and Eastman xx, both pushed to 1600, for portrait work. Each has expressive strengths and weaknessesβ€”I just find it really remarkable the differences between black and white films.

I do kinda love that I can just post a photo of whatever when I’m struggling to have a coherent verbal thought.

I give them a thumbs down and shake my head slowly as though I’m disappointed in them. Because I am.

Hi! It’s Maggie.

I think this is gonna be my primary online home for now, though I’ll maintain the older options for a while.
