There are kids zipping around the neighborhood on their mini e-mountain bikes that they (presumably) for for Xmas, and I’m torn between “they’re going to get themselves killed” and “damn, I was born at the wrong time”

I’m thinking about buying one of the harnesses for my dog that will let me support her back end while we walk and on stairs. I am a little skeptical on how comfortable it is though. Anyone have experience using one of those with their elderly dogs?

Also breaking in a new cartridge, a Christmas present to myself. So far it sounds incredible […]

I’ve sort of refined a recipe that makes pretty good pulled pork in an instant pot. It’s not 100% as good as a pork butt that’s actually been smoking all night, but it’s 90% as good for 10% of the work. I made my own NC-style BBQ sauce to go with it. #pork […]

I shot 219 rolls of film in 2025. Vast majority was black and white, with #ilfordhp5 and #kodaktrix predictably taking the top spots. My favorite 3 cameras also topped the list. #xtol is my favorite developer, and the data supports that. This spreadsheet […]

I have to credit my high-school-ex-girlfriend’s-step-mother for getting me into this band (here’s to you, Gail!). But it’s been 20 years and I still love them. And you literally cannot go wrong with an album cover by Roger Dean.

I decided it was too cold to attend the annual possum drop. Maybe next year.

Two days ago I visited a new (to me) nature trail at a local park. I packed a few rolls of film, chosen based on how sunny out it was. I didn't know how dark and tree-covered the trail would end up being…so this got pushed waaaaay further than I expected (or […]

I’ve sort of accidentally fallen into a new habit that I’ve found helpful, and maybe you will too.

I put a piece of painter’s tape with the film, speed and dev time on the tank - once development is done I peel it off and put it on the 2x4 at the top of my […]

A Jobo tank with a piece of green tape on it indicating film speed, development time and camera. I forgot to write the temp but I will do that when it hangs to dry. Several rolls of 35mm film hanging to dry, with painters tape and notes above indicating time, temp, speed and camera
