Well it seems to me that I’ve not really written anything particularly in-depth about photography in a while, and this needed to change. I guess I had been ranting at people (in-person) about various little intricacies of old film, TLRs, and other interesting camera things that frankly they didn’t want to hear, and this would …

A New Project for May
I’ve been projectless for a while. I want some new project that I can devote some somewhat serious and vaguely focussed time into over the next month or two.

And today they hyped the launch of their new film—LomoChrome—they called it. I found their little news pre-release a couple days …
What I’ve done so far this year
I owe myself some sort of recap on what I’ve been up to so far this wonderful January. Partly to convince myself that I have, in fact, done something, and party to set a level to base myself off (and obviously do more) for the rest of the year. Having been home in Scotland now …
