So much is now...'such and such said this isn't it terrible?! Aren't you scared/ angry? Let's be angry at this person'! It's tiring drivel for the most part.

I have unplugged myself of Kate and barring the odd thing seeping through the cycle of fear is somewhat relieved. There's a small amount of internalized shame. I was raised to keep informed but I have lost a lot of confidence that is what one does when consuming endless slop

Thanks Damien. I have been pleased with it too! I just have an urge for a small camera for a bit. I imagine similar subject and style.

Thanks Gerry! Yeah super noir! Now let's see if I can replicate it!

Absolutely I think if it is useful and you enjoy the process it's absolutely fine to do these dorts of things. It would probably do me good too. I'm just amused that work people are being work people and trying to make it a goal oriented activity as soon as I stick my head up over the parapet.

Yeah I learned a while ago that I photograph pretty much whatever feels good as and when I do it and there isn't much which can skew that. I'd be a terrible professional photographer but I am a happy amateur.

Why do people have to make everything a chore? 😭

I've shared some of my recent pics at work. I NEVER show anyone my photos outside of the community here. A few in and I get a positive response BUT also an invite to join a photo a week commitment thing and I understand if that works for you but I am far too disorganized for that!

Audiobooks are an absolute lifesaver for me.

This is me. Although it's got better lately. I've been to Brussels, Dublin (many many times), Seattle etc and never really got away from the environs of aviation. Dublin was the worst. Short hop for a 2 hour meeting and shirt hop back. Total waste of time and avgas. COVID put an end to that.

Those 5am thoughts are the worst. It's a lonely place to be, especially in winter. I'm sending you all the vibes to give you strength!

Thanks Steve!

Thank you! Do you mean in a compositional sense or a 'I messed this up but it's still cool' sense?
February 10, 2026 at 6:46 AM
Thanks! I'll definitely permit myself to take credit for the repeated vertical shapes if nothing else!

My partner flew Luxair a while ago. They said it was pretty decent. Even fed you properly in a short flight.

I'm fairly sure I messed up the dev on one roll. Massive contrast. Nevertheless. OSAKA NOIR! #BelieveInFilm

Promising images from the XA2 that went to Japan. I don't know why I am surprised, it *always* delivers.

Thanks Tom!

That's beautiful. What texture!

Probably not the intended use of a 595 but I am revelling in being able to go and get garden supplies and actually *fit them in the car*
