Yeah, don't sweat the small stuff. Live and learn.
A screenshot of the arcade game Aero Fighters III, showing a scene from the end of Level 4 wherein Spanky the Dolphin says "The Capitol was destroyed, but hey, what can you do?" A character portrait of the dolphin is shown with him wearing a leather pilot helmet and an open mouth. Behind the text and the portrait, the background is dimmed and shows a pile of rubble. The current score for player one on the top left is shown as 130400. The top right of the screen shows "PUSH 2P BUTTON," instructions for allowing a second player to join. The bottom of the screen shows that the player has 3 out of 6 available bombs to use. It also says "LEVEL-4" and "CREDITS 06." The screenshot was produced from an emulator and has a CRT style shader to simulate how the graphics would look on that type of display.

Look at this silly thing
Photo of an Asus eeePC, a pioneering laptop from the "netbook" crazy in the 2000s. It is a very small, somewhat clunky and low budget looking white laptop

Tested some of the slowest film I've tried so far. I think it looks really good! Almost no visible grain at all, very sharp lines. I'll use a tripod next time, though. Lots of blur.

Black and white photo of an unmaintained decorative planter at the edge of the woods. There is a statue of Mary looking down it her arms slightly spread, seeming to almost gesture to a flowering weed that has grown in front of her. There are a lot of high contrast shadows over the scene from the nearby trees, and the face of the statue is shadowed. Black and white photo of some plants in a garden. I don't know what they are, but the big one in focus has many broad leaves growing from a central point. They have a ribbed texture and lighter color around the outside. Black and white photo of a tree branch with leaves and what are either nuts or berries. There is a pronounced bokeh effect leaving a group of leaves in the middle of the photo in focus, but many leaves behind them somewhat blurred. Black and white photo of a striped orange cat sitting on a porch handrail looking into the camera lens.

...and, here's the same frame after I remembered to apply the calibration data on my scanner. Better? I think so. 🎞️

I've had some trouble getting good exposure with this Holga 120 Pan camera. This Kodak Gold is a tad underexposed, but it's much better than some ISO 400 black and white film I've tried. I like this result, so now I just need to find an actual interesting subject.

Wide photo of a some trees and an unused greenhouse. One tree has blossomed with light pink flowers, the other is bare. There is a vignette and soft focus around the edges, typical of a Holga camera.

Perfume bottles

🎞Lucky SHD 100
📷Olympus AF-10 Super
Black and white photo of a oval vanity mirror with many bottles of perfume in front of it. There are around 30-35 bottles in different shapes, sizes, and hues. The wooden frame of the mirror and the table in front of it are painted a light color. The vanity mirror is in the corner of a room, and there is the corner of an open window on the left of the frame.

A small nearby pond.

Black and white photo of a pond with a two lane road running past it. Being taken in the early spring, there are many evergreen trees and a cluster of bare branched deciduous trees across the road from the pond. There is a reflection of the trees in the pond distorted by small ripple caused by a light breeze,

Smurves

🎞️Fuji 400 (But you could probably tell.)
📷Lomography Sprocket Rocket
Mirror selfie taken with a gimmicky "toy" camera which exposes the color film to the edges, including the sprocket holes. Subject is me, a schlubby white guy with long curly hair. The mirror is in three segments all angled differently, so I appear in the photo three times in slightly different angles. My face is obscured by my camera with a comically large flash module. Because the image extends to the edges of the film, you can see the frame counters and the text "FUJI 400" repeated in yellow beyond the sprocket holes. I am wearing a terrible/fun Hawaiian shirt that is mostly blue and has various smurfs and flowers patterned across it. The mirror is in need of cleaning, made apparent by the flash.
