Been working down here for nearly 5 months, there was no way I was doing that tourist crap unless someone came down and MADE me

📸Canon F1 //🔭50mm F1.4 // 🎞️Kodak Gold 200 (except for the Van Gogh one, that’s an iPhone)

Didn’t factor in dim dramatic lighting when I put the slowest film I had in... but since we’re at the Peterson Automotive museum I’m gonna roll with it 🚗💨 41/4)

In case anyone needs one, Amazon still has 1 (one) Microsoft TV Photo viewer available! Complete with 3.5” floppy drive so you can show your grand pappy those new-fangled JPEGs on your Trinitron! This thing came out in 1999!
