Happy little bumblebee.

Neighbor's house in Midorigaoka, a lifetime ago. Shot on Kodak Plus-X, a film type discontinued in 2011.

Fresh-roasted cashews, right out of the oven.

On my last day of work, back in '24, I caught sight of this little beauty as I walked by an unused office on my way out to the parking lot. In the spirit of 𝑂𝑓𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑒 𝑆𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒 I tossed it into my box of belongings and out the building I went. What were they gonna' do, fire me?

Just stumbled across a couple of shots I took on Tri-X film, ages ago in Japan. My sweet little Japanese bobtail kitty, found eating garbage behind a restaurant. Barely weaned and so tiny she fit into a raincoat pocket. These are after she'd been with me a few months. I miss her a lot.

It's been too long since I bought a kitty shirt, ergo:

Yard sale glass from over the years. Three eras of Fenton.

It's early May. Some flowers are fading fast, while fuzzy fliers rush to collect the last morsels of pollen.

The weather has barely begun to turn warm and the chocolate mint is already going bonkers. Yardstick on the left.
