Posted at 2:35 pm | Filed Under journal

Taking photos on my lunch hour, listening to music, and publishing on the web, all from a smartphone. It takes the sting out of not having a jetpack in this iteration of The Future. Unfortunately, I had to try 3 different locations to get a 3G connection from AT&T.

Complaining about the iPhone’s camera?

Posted at 6:06 pm | Filed Under art, journal

First Shot, Third Canonet

Posted at 6:11 pm | Filed Under journal

This is a medium-res scan from a test roll out of my third Canonet QL 17 GIII. It’s been one of my favorite cameras over the years, and one of the best deals out there if you’re looking for a cheap rangefinder. Canon sold lots of them, so there’s spare parts galore. It’s easy to […]
