You’d never guess by look­ing at these pages, but I’ve been shoot­ing more color film lately.

    You might be the only per­son I know to take a cam­era with them on laun­dry day.

    Nice. What film was this shot on?

    It’s a slip­pery slope! Next you’ll be talk­ing about how annoy­ing it is to print color, and then you’ll have a Canon (2-3i)D 42,000,000 pixel digi­body with a 4-600 dig­i­tally feed­back com­pen­sated anti-vibration zoom lens, which only opens to f/9.3, but that’s OK because the sen­sor has great low-light per­for­mance and the lens VR is almost as good as an $8 tripod.

    Actu­ally, given that beau­ti­ful orange rain­bow, I wish this had been Kodachrome.

    Say, when can I come by and see all your stuff that doesn’t make it to the web?

    Adrian:  Thanks!  I was play­ing with the Mamiya RB67 (a.k.a. the beast) again.  The film was Fuji Reala 100.  For C-41 I usu­ally buy fancier film (Fuji Pro) but as I had intended to shoot these rolls with my Holga, per­fect color was a low pri­or­ity.  Besides, color film always looks bet­ter in medium format!

    I want to try the new Kodak Ektar 100.

    Ter­ran:  Yeah, aren’t black and orange the coolest new rain­bow col­ors?  I’m sav­ing my money for the first gigapixel dig­i­tal cam­era with a 180 degree fish­eye lens.  Just push the but­ton and crop out the pic­ture you meant to take later, from the cool com­fort of your com­puter terminal.

    Don’t worry about my other pic­tures.  They’re all crap.

    NoTH­ING done, said, or con­tem­plated in the Scot­tos­phere is crap.

    One may not LIKE it, may not wish to HEAR it, much less THINK ABOUT it, but it is not crap because it is all stim­u­la­tive of ques­tion­ing one’s own presumptions.

    Let’s not read or hear any more of that crap out of you!

    I would expect Atari 2600 car­tridges to pop out of those- or per­haps soap boxes detailed with paint­ings of their con­tents with an intri­cacy inversely pro­por­tional to the actual innards.

    Hey Scott shoot me line if you get a chance! I need some supreme guid­ance from EECS land..
