Sure I mostly shoot film, but it's nice to have a digital camera around when the sun goes down and cool shots present themselves.

On Sunday, thousands of people (the count I saw was more than 10,000) gathered in front of the White House to protest the administration's refugee ban, and then marched down to the Capitol to protest Congress' inaction. I was already downtown for work and walked down to the protest with my cameras. I have three sets of photos from this demonstration. This is the first set. The next set, which are on medium format film, will probably show up in a week. And the last set, on 35mm film, I'll have to develop sometime this month.
Anywho, here are my digital shots from today. All taken with a Fuji X100T using the wide-angle converter, and edited in VSCO for iOS. The "wide-angle" in this case is 28mm, which is a little tough. There's always so much in the frame. But I think I used the space well, for the most part. As always, let me know what you think.
We are down in Charlottesville this weekend to visit some family. We took a quick walk this morning and I brought a camera along, which was great because we ran into a few friendly neighborhood pets. Given what is happening in the world, I thought a few animal photos would be nice. Taken with a Fuji X100T using the wide-angle attachment. Edited in VSCO for iOS.
Here are all the photos that don't really belong anywhere in particular. They are of particular scenes and areas that struck me while we were driving around California wine country. I'll say this to close out this series of photos: Of the trips I've taken over the last few years, this was definitely one of my favorites. We will go back again, no question.
Instead of going straight to work this morning, I took the bus to a stop near the National Mall and walked through the "March for Life," an annual gathering and demonstration in opposition to abortion. I took a few photos with my Leica M5 and you'll see those whenever I develop that film. Until then, here are two shots I took with my Fuji digital camera. I converted them to greyscale and edited them with VSCO for iPad.
I said this on Twitter, but for as much as I like black and white photography, digital conversions don't touch the look of analog black and white, whether scanned negatives or actual prints. There's just a certain something to film that's missing in digital.
With that said, I'm still happy to share these. Let me know what you think.

We spent one day in Sonoma while up in Northern California, exploring the town and drinking (a lot of) wine. There's an old cemetery not far from downtown Sonoma, and we walked through just as the sun was setting. Many of the graves date back to the town's founding, and at least one veteran of the Revolutionary War is buried there.
