Happy Friday.
Just got a roll back today. Half beach, half city, all cross processed. I was nervous about how they would turn out, as cross processing really tweaks colors, and if I had an epic shot, I didn’t want it to be ruined.
I had to play the waiting game, and this morning, I was greatly rewarded. Love how they turned out. The colors are great, the feeling is better. More to come from this set of exposures.

Apparently one cannot reblog their own posts. Probably for the better.
Sylvia made me think back on this post I made in July of last year, and I thought it was nice enough to share again. Some of my favorite word finds, plus a few more I’ve collected.
Enjoy. :)

…a dollar is what I need.
Sometimes scruples come with a price tag. Jacob, you’re a good friend.
And so damn pretty. Never play down your sexy, boo.

Peep the song below. Been so good for quite awhile now.
Vija’s gone. The country between us is a big one, but I’ll see my beautiful baby sister soon.
Sunshine, rainbows, and smiles. Untouched and straight out of the Nikomat.
Jennalise on the 4th of July.
So into this girl’s style. Little bit bay, a little bit big apple. Met her on the dance floor, and her moves all but forced me to invite her to Apotheke’s Happy Monday. She obliged. The party and I are so happy she did.
Cheers to one more beautifully permanent fixture. <3
Happy Birthday Kay Kay….I need some photos of you, pretty.
But for your birthday, California has given you a repeal of Proposition 8.
Fucking hooray. From the Nikomat.
:)
All of these must be watched. Go NPR. Forever.
Raphael Saadiq is great. Love this.
Walking shiny streets with Jacob last week. He is an incredible supplement to my life. Same roll as that beautiful weeping willow. A lot more to come from this magic, far away Sunday.
Took this photo on Sunday in the East Village. I guess this is a good time to point out two things.
1. This photo is from the Nikomat. And when I say Nikomat, I mean, THIS. Made in the 1960’s, I’ve been loving this camera for a lot of 2010. What it lacks in modern convenience (a lightmeter) it makes up for in feel and quality. When this camera is on, it’s on.
2. David calls me an anti-cropite. I am one. None of my photos posted in this forum are ever cropped or rotated. I will definitely mess with some levels, contrast, colors, but the composition is the composition from start to finish, and I’ve been surprisingly able to hold out thus far. I’m sure the day will come when I just have to do it, but for now, my frame in camera is my frame in publishing.
I almost decided to rotate this one a little, but came to realize I had, in fact, done exactly what I wanted with it, and stayed true to the frame.
Cheers to seeing and believing. It’s a beautiful day.
Ave. A
From the Nikomat.
It’s special.
Happy Birthday Vija, Leigh, and Matt.

Vija is here. Finally. After nearly 48 hours of travel, the smiles are flying in from across the country.
Photos from a magic day on the roof with her and Evin.

And later, this photo of me:
Maybe my favorite. By Evin.
Happy Birthday tomorrow, beautiful sister girl. So happy to have you here.
