Let’s Go to Boston
What do you say, wanna go into Boston for a post-dinner walk tonight? I do!
Full discloser, I only have something like three film photos left over from the one previous time I had a film camera in the city with me, and those three pics (including this one you see here) are awful and a total waste and not at all worth sharing, but I really want to share something new because that’s what I do with these film photo things, right?
Anyway, here are a couple that have already been shared… just cause.
So what do you say, wanna go into town for a walk tonight? Let’s go!
One goal for a photo walk in Boston is to try to recreate this photo. I took this with my old Kokak point and shoot back in 2005 and I want to do it again and possibly improve it? I want to do it on film and on digital.
f5.6, 1/750th, iso 80.
Plum Island
I went back to Plum Island today to take a film shot or two of the lighthouse. I took some digital pics as well because why not? I walked over to the river this time because the lighthouse itself is boring and uninteresting. I saw some chartered fishing boats loading up. It was cool. The Merrimack River is HUGE here, right near the point where it empties into the ocean.
I used Dad’s camera and finished off the roll that I originally loaded up around Christmas. I might send it off to a lab today. I think I have one other roll that’s ready to go as well. Maybe a trip to the post office is time well spent on my last day off this month.
There you have it though, the highlights from this morning’s photo excursion. When will I do another? Not tomorrow, as it is a work from the office day. After that? Who knows.
Sunrise Pics
Success! The cloud cover was non-existent and the weather came through for me! This is Salisbury Beach in Salisbury, Massachusetts. Sunrise was at 5:27am. The first few were before the sun came up. The waves were pretty high for this spot. The tide was pretty high too. I was hoping to be able to go over to the other side of the pier, but I didn’t bother.
There were film shots too but it could be decades before I get them developed. I used my ebay Nikon with Dad’s zoom lens. That lens really is a piece of shit, but I kinda want to have one full roll shot with it. We’ll see if anything comes out recognizable as sunrise at the ocean pics. I definitely got to get myself a new lens for that camera.
Right then, I have finally done a photo-trip this summer! There were two more quick stops, but you’ll see those in the next post. You might say I have the bug again. There will be more morning photo-jaunts before the weather goes bad. I promise. Sunlight be damned, I am doing more of this!
I Just Wanna Go Out and Shoot Film
Between the weather and my schedule I am completely cock blocked from shooting film.
I just wanna go outside and shoot some damn film!
Get Out There
I need to shoot film!!!
I need to get outside and shoot film again. I’m going stir crazy with all these raining, cloudy, miserably awful weather days. Spring was a bust and Summer isn’t looking much better.
Time to Get Back to This
It’s the middle of June. The sun rise is ridiculously early. The weather is almost sort of nice. It’s time. It’s time to start planning morning photography projects again. The summer is just about here and around these parts it doesn’t last long. Yeah, it’s time to get back to it. Film and digital. Let’s get to it, Robert.
Tree
A tree in The Park in Andover, MA. I found this place while visiting my mother in a nursing home just down the street. I may never go back here again and that is sort of painful to think about.
