Colorado is quickly becoming know for Craft Beers. There are almost too many breweries. I just visited a new one yesterday. But We’ve also discovered another Beer Festival: Hops and Handrails: Over 65 Breweries and impossible to ample them all. But we did our best. Just a few of our favorites: I particularly liked the…
Every January, dozens of the best professional sculptors and snow artists in the world come to Breckenridge to compete. In 65 hours, with cheese graters and wooden spoons, they carve a 12-foot-tall, 25-ton block of snow. Towards the end of my roll, I think the cold started to effect the camera. The last few shots…
I got a 6×12 ONDU pinhole camera from Jana recently, and took it out for a walk on Cougar Mountain, nearby. It’s f/133, and 6×12 gets you 6 shots per roll of 120. You wind to even frame numbers. I used the Pinhole Assist app for exposure. I shot a roll of 1993 Agfa Pan…
I’ve taken a couple of rolls with my recently acquired Kiev 4am. It came with a Helios 103 F1.8-22 lens and a Jupiter 8. I shot Kodak TMax 400 with the Helios and Fujicolor Superia 200 with the Jupiter 8. The only thing I have to compare is my Zorki 4k with a Jupiter 8…
The first of this year, I heading back to Sand diego for a high school friends wedding. I brought the Mamiya 6 to take some photos of the ceremony, but with three other photographers there it just didn’t make sense. Instead I shot them at home the day after. Mamiya 6, Ilford Delta 100 Pro…
In week 13 I wanted to do some shooting ,but I wanted to use the westin master 2 lightmeter for the whole roll.Ive been bouncing around using different meters,so I figured lets stick to one.I also recorded all my settings for each shot…… In this set above, the one and look I wanted came from…
While my own 52-Roll project from last year is long done, it doesn’t mean I still can’t do anything with my photos. This past year’s project has been my favourite to date. With some ups and downs, and a little bit of love thrown in. So I decided that of all the years, 2016 would…

Now that I’ve decided on a theme for this year (which includes not just the work I’m posting here, but instant and 35mm photography) I am having so much fun exploring the place I’ve lived for years and finding amazing stuff. I’m also enjoying getting to know my Diana, which is a much more competent…
A bit “Over Exposed” this week. My XD-11 exposure setting knob was knocked off the set exposure and I didn’t notice right away. My one pet peeve with the XD-11 is that the exposure dial can easily be knocked out of position. So I’ll have to reshoot most of the images on the roll, because I shooting them…
My friend Lisa Greany Raiola found a folding Kodak Retinette during her home visit to Montana. She took it home and dropped it off to MidState Camera for a look through. I picked it up for her and ran a roll of TriX through it. I read the directions first but….I loaded the film and…
Guess what happened? Nights happen, and nights also happen with the only colour film on hand being ektar 100;that wont do! So digging into the arsenal I loaded some Tmax 400 into the Mamiya 645 super, and assumed the worst, needless to say, film keeps, and keeps and keeps on surprising me. Where was this? Still…
