TK Roll 2015–14: First Dispatch From the Horn of Plenty (Minolta XE-5, Kodak Ektar 100)

I haven’t been keeping up. No, that’s not entirely true: I have been keeping up in shooting. I shot a lot of film these past weeks. I have been keeping up in getting them developed. I have been keeping up in scanning them, one by one, bit by bit, into my computer. I haven’t been…

Week 2 – Down the canal

Mamiya RB67 – Ektar 100 – Tetenal C41 – Epson V600 It was Sunday, the last day I could shoot week 2, so I went down the canal. It’s close to home and I couldn’t think of anything else as I only had about 45 minutes before I had to be somewhere. I repeated a…

Roll 44 – The pumpkin patch

For roll 44 I visited a pumpkin patch in Sauvie Island with my pinhole friends Gretchen and Donna. We had a great day playing pinhole in the corn maze. At one point we found ourselves surrounded by kids and I scared them with a zombie horse mask. I may have gotten punched in the face…

Roll 33: Best in the West Rib Cook Off

The handy-dandy EXA and a roll of Kodak Ektar 100 went on another festival adventure.   This time we went to Sparks, NV, for the annual Best in the West Rib Cook Off.   Woo-hooo!   Every Labor Day weekend, the grillers, smokers and masses of humanity gather to consume as many beef ribs as…

Roll 29 – more pinhole at the beach.

Hi there! Boy, it’s sure been a long time since I’ve posted. I have been debating whether or not I should even continue this project. It’s not that I’m not taking photos, it’s just that I am terrible about being organized about it. I have been encouraged to keep posting so I will. I hope…

Roll# 18; New Wheels and the Whale…

Saturday.  This was it, I was going to complete my hunt, no if’s, and’s, or butt’s.  I awoke early in the morning so I could get a jump on the day, before it started to get too hot.  This was also a rare day for me to pack both the Mamiya C330 and the Mamiya…

Roll 26 – A 3d Printed Pinhole camera

A few days before I left for Amsterdam I ordered a Schlem P6*6 3D printed pinhole camera from Todd Schlemmer. Todd lives in Seattle, a mere hop, skip, and Jump away from where I live near Portland. So I fully expected to receive the camera via mail after our trip. However, Todd was planning on going to Amsterdam…

Roll 21 – The pinhole rolls (Amsterdam)

Since I was going to Amsterdam for WPPD, I brought a pinhole camera. Specifically, my Zero 2000. I have written about this day several times in a few different places. You can read about the day on both Pinhole Obscura and Blatherskite, if you wish. In short: it was a fabulous day. One of the…

Roll 15: Carson City, Nevada

This roll was shot on my Nikon FM2 with Kodak Ektar 100, 35mm film.  My subject:   Carson City, the capital of Nevada. I was out and about the other day near the Governor’s mansion in the old, historical district.   Nevada is a unique place in that the Governor’s mansion has a private residence but…

Roll 11: Shooting the West

  After ten years of wanting to go, a friend of mine and I managed to finally get it together and go to the “Shooting the West” Photography Symposium in Winnemucca, Nevada.   We only managed to make it to the Saturday presentations but there is almost a full week of workshops, presentations, contests and…
