This scan was markedly more crisp than with the normal holder. Mamiya 645 Pro, 55mm, Ektar 100, converted to black & white in Lightroom

From Jan 2023: I took advantage of a break between all the storms, took the Mamiya 645, went to the coast, and exposed some film. With this film I also tested fluid-mounting the negative. It took me a couple of tries to find the right setup, but I’m quite happy how it worked out.

BBC NEWS / AFP / BBC NEWS / REUTERS JOINT STATEMENT:

“We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families.

"They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering. "

JOINT STATEMENT ON GAZA FROM AFP, AP, BBC NEWS AND REUTERS

“We are desperately concerned for our journalists in Gaza, who are increasingly unable to feed themselves and their families. For many months, these independent journalists have been the world’s eyes and ears on the ground in Gaza. They are now facing the same dire circumstances as those they are covering.

“Journalists endure many deprivations and hardships in warzones. We are deeply alarmed that the threat of starvation is now one of them.

“We once again urge the Israeli authorities to allow journalists in and out of Gaza. It is essential that adequate food supplies reach the people there.”

Even in Montpellier, the 8th city in France, there was a #nokings protest!

Our paper on how we map forests in the western United States just came out: www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/17...

We use this to help mitigate catastrophic wildfires, protect biodiversity, water and structures, and to make communities more climate resilient.

I made easy-to-print posters for the @standupforscience.bsky.social march on March 7th.

Today I added two posters specifically for @ucsanfrancisco.bsky.social and @sfstatebio.bsky.social @sfsupinc.bsky.social (I can't find all the handles I want)

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

I hope you will go, and it make it easier for you, I made some easy-to-print signs! I made 7 different poster designs, with for each of the designs 2-page and 4-page printables with solid letters or just the outlines of the letters.

We can help shift the tide! Wisconsin must have fair electoral maps going forward.

Answer Musk’s money with a blizzard of small donations. Give Musk the finger and support Judge Susan Crawford for the open WI Supreme Court seat. Our democracy depends on it.

More nature than landscape, but here you go. I couldn’t get the flamingos at an angle at which they wouldn’t intersect with background elements, but I liked how the curves of tier necks and bodies interact with each other. #naturephotography #blackandwhitephotography #montpellier
