Random thing... I really do love a lot of things about #DragonflyBSD but the lag in ports being updated is just a really serious road bump to use as a daily driver.

So, I have a confession. Part of my recent lack of posts is due to getting my new camera up to snuff.

Test shots from my new Voigtländer Bessa II w/ Color-Heliar 105mm, shot on Rollei RPX 400 w/ yellow filter.

I was honestly not impressed. It definitely has that old-school cinematic look in terms of contrast and color balance, but the film is so difficult to process in a home lab that artifacts are almost guaranteed.

Very glad that I took full advantage of October in the Blue Ridge while I could, because here comes November in all its cold, sullen sogginess.
