In your eyes
I want to say this is in an alley between 6th and 7th St off of Florida Avenue.

DIY
After a year of shooting film and sending it off to a lab to get developed, I've started developing my own stuff, by way of classes and a local darkroom. This also coincided with the purchase I've been building toward for the last few months: a Leica M5, my new rig for daily shooting. I may write about the m5 one day, for now, here are shots from a roll of film I developed and scanned myself. These were taken using the cheap Russian-made vintage lens that I got with the M5. Subsequent posts will have photos taken with different lenses. I think there is a bit of underdevelopment here, and a few of these photos are definitely underexposed. Still, I'm happy that I actually know how to do this kind of work, since now I can start to get better at it.

Studio
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.

January Twenty-Ninth
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.
January Twenty-Eighth
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.
California Miscellany
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.
