As I researched medium format photography in deciding whether or not to participate , I came face-to-face with a trend I’ve seen in other fields.

As I write this I have shot 3 frames on my Holga 120N . It’s been a long time since I had to wait to see the results of a photo. One of my favorite aspects of film photography in the olden days was to get my roll(s) of film back from the drug store [...]

It’s my photojojo time capsule from early to mid-April.  Interestingly, the Tampa Bay Rays were playing Baltimore early in April and they did that again this year.  Do they always play the same teams in the same schedule?  Also, the first photo from my 365 was in the capsule. Share and Enjoy:

I think, had I been able to take photography classes and develop my own negatives and learn about aperture and shutter speed and all that with analog cameras, [...]

In the beginning was the kit lens. And it was OK. With it I learned how to use my DSLR. I had never even had a film SLR before, so there was a lot to learn. Eventually I wanted my lenses to reach further so I invested in the Tamron 55-200mm. I was ecstatic at [...]

Recently, when I started up Opera, it updated to 10.5.  I noticed a huge cosmetic change.  Observe: Yes, they have copied the GUI setup from Chrome.  The tabs are now above the address bar.  Now, they still have a separate search bar like Firefox, but this is a pretty big change.  Also, although I can’t [...]
