Downtown Again: Underexposed Edition

I forgot to check something when I took this. I can’t remember exactly, but some setting was off and the light meter wasn’t at a good spot and I ended up a little underexposed… and I kinda like it.

I think I was trying to trigger the light meter and I bumped the shutter button too hard. I think that was what happened.

Clock

Starting to get the film bug again. Just a little bit. As I wrote below I spent some time looking at cheap, used lenses yesterday. I have about half a roll of Fuji Superia 400 left in Dad’s camera. I’m thinking up next will be my last roll of black and white, Kentmere 100, in my camera but with Dad’s cheap-o zoom lens. We’ll see how all of those play together.

After that? Ebay? A 28mm or 35mm prime? A zoom that runs from something like 75-200mm? Something like that? No idea. We’ll see what happens… if anything happens. I want to get something nice and long for my Z5 as well. All of that without spending any money? Sure, right.

This clock belonged to my grandmother… I think. It might have been a great aunt or a great uncle. It doesn’t work but I hope to look into finding someone to fix it over the summer. We’ll see.

Ebay and I spent some time together yesterday looking at Nikkor ais lenses. Gear Acquisition Syndrome is starting to rear it’s ugly head again.

The Mighty Spicket River

Now that the RPM Challenge is over, and Spring is right around the corner… the photography shit is likely going to ramp up again. Road trips, anyone?
