like the title says, I’ve been scanning a bunch of film tonight. Shot some today too, hopefully a few of those are good. this whole blogging every day has me short on things to post. I’ve got a couple big events lined up, odd salon with the 500mm and a fancy olive oil themed dinner, and a few little things, but the big pile of unpublished mess is no more. There’s probably stuff in the archive that I could go fish for, like I did the post about trees. The trip out to see the trees was really memorable, but there’s not a ton from last fall I want to go digging for or that I’m excited about. The past is passed. Onward!

Also pictures of some things that aren’t trees. This was last fall, right after my birthday, when my folks came to town. For some reason, I never blogged these photos. We drove out to Sequoia National Park one of the days, and got to see the biggest (by volume and weight) tree in the world.

The adage for shooting slide film was always “expose for the highlights, develop for the shadows,” because slides had the same problem digital sensors had, even with many stops less dynamic range. The highlights, once gone, are super gone. Gone forever. The shadows, you could burn in while printing and get extra out of them.

End of February. Winter doldrums were getting kicked out for some spring energy. I ate before I went, something I don’t even remember, and then there was a lot of food and booze when I got there, always a good sign. It was a most excellent party, with dancing and champagne and every single person there was really rad. Which makes sense, since Kawan is one of the raddest dudes I know.

I think this was february? (checks date in photo metadata, without which I would only know it was “sometime in the past”) yep for sure february. the 19th. There was lasagna and a dog and stories. I may be being slightly silly.
