hey man, i know it's rough right now

but please
put that color grade away (you know, that one. blue)

maybe try setting the black point a little lower than middle gray
and don't be scared of that contrast slider

me and william eggleston are very worried about you, we miss you (and the colors)
also, still adjusting to the post-academia life, photography will resume shortly 😭

picking up a rolleiflex 2.8e tomorrow if everything goes well. outside looks beat, but the optics/mechanics are fine according to the seller. price is a total steal

i'm now part of a friend's wedding photography portfolio. really should have worn something other than a hawaiian shirt and bright green running shoes (at least she could crop those)

got up at 5am to shoot portraits at the park before sunrise absolutely worth it

finally took the pentax for a spin again and promptly shot about 80 euros worth of film

i feel stupid for letting it go unused for so long

i'll get to posting photos soon, don't worry, but before i do that, can anyone tell me they know what i mean when i say oscarbait but for music?

thought a camera was fucked, but no, it was my scanning setup leading to funky artifacts from reflections on very dense negs. always helps check the thing itself rather than worry for days. ah well. off to buy some extremely black paint

the czech guy who made the "new" plastic fomapan containers that are somehow chewing up my film pullers while remaining entirely impervious to them needs to be sent straight to tartarus for some ironic ass punishment

accidentally nuked my personal wiki while setting up something else. i can recover the database, so it's fine but this is a good point to switch to another knowledge management system, i feel. do you have any suggestions for journaling/knowledge management?
