A Flatiron building for #FolderWeek
Kodak Retina IIa, Ilford HP5+ 400
#BelieveInFilm #FilmPhotography
A wedge shaped building in The Domain, in north Austin, TX. Apparently many buildings with this shape are named Flatiron?!? The 1st floor window has MEDICI in all caps, indicating there is a Medici coffee shop inside.

[Interior, FBI Crime Lab, Scully & Mulder look over The Grinch's corpse in the autopsy room]

Scully: Odd, his heart appears to have been 3 sizes larger than normal, but there's stretch marks on his aorta, as if it grew suddenly. What could've done this?

Mulder: Not what, who. Cindy Lou Who.

Looking down Congress Avenue
A crowd of protestors in the street at Congress Ave and 11st St. Behind them, a police blockade, and Congress Ave fades into the distance.

I brought my Canon A-1 (late-70s film SLR camera) and 28/50/135 lenses and shot two rolls of Ilford HP5 B&W film. I don’t really have a good eye for B&W contrast, so we’ll see how it goes when I get the scans. There were more colorful signs and flags than I expected, partly due to Pride Month.
