random items from the first half of the summer
These are photos from a neighborhood in Charlottesville known, unofficially, as “Hogwaller” after the old stockyard that is still standing. I took them using a Yashica-D and Ilford XP2 Super film. I believe I took them on a nice August evening but I honestly don’t remember!
Seen on US-29 going north to Charlottesville.
Each year, Ashland, Va. has a big street festival celebrating the fact that it is a hub for various rail lines in the state. There are vendors and games and music and also people gather to watch trains pass by. It’s a good time! The festival was in April and somehow I forgot to post the photos. So, you know, here they are.
These are the keepers from a few rolls of 35mm that I exposed back in May. The color film is Kodak Gold and the monochrome is XP2 Super. They were taken in Charlottesville, Richmond and Washington DC, which is to say, the usual haunts.
I was in Cambridge for a few days in May and managed to take a few photos in-between sessions at the conference I was attending. Here are the keepers.
I think this was a roll of Ilford XP2 Super. I shot it on my Leica, as usual, and all of these were taken in places around Charlottesville.
Back in April, my wife and I took a short trip to Savannah, Georgia while my kids were with their grandparents. We did our usual thing: wandered on foot and ate as much as we could. It was a good time and I took my fair share of pictures. These, I think, are the best of the bunch. The square format photos are film (Ilford XP2 Super and Kodak Gold 200) taken on a Yashica-D. Everything else is digital, taken with a Lumix GX8 that met its maker soon after the trip.
These are the keepers from the first roll of film I shot this past April. It was Kodak Gold 200 and I used, as always, my Leica M4-P. The photos are mostly from around Charlottesville but there’s one at the end that I took in Deerfield, Massachusetts. One of the things I was trying to do, with this roll, was play with color blocking, as you’ll see.
