I am not sure I could hate Adobe more, wait, no, I can.

Now the "agent" (person or otherwise) is saying untrue things about where you can see the renewal date - it is NOT listed anywhere.
Thank you for your patience. As I can see you have an active subscription to Creative Cloud Photography plan with 1TB. which is costing you AUD 30.99. your next billing date is - 21 Dec 2025 and next renewal date is-21 Apr 2026. OK - thanks. So 21 April is when it will renew - where can I see that information myself? Parvez yes, you're correct. before you go, I'm not sure if this is for you, but... do you ever find yourself needing to create social posts, flyers, posters, videos, projects, or personal brands without spending too much time on design? Can I stop my plan from renewing automatically? Currently, you cannot stop your plan from renewing automatically. To turn off automatic renewal, you will need to cancel your membership. Learn how to cancel your membership.

The one down side of the Pentax Espio Mini is the amount of film it rolls on before the first shot. Still got 25 frames on a roll of 24, but still 😅
Photo of a film negative hanging up - there is a gap between the start of the film leader that was exposed when loading the film and the first frame.

Been trying to find an affordable compact point and shoot film camera. I think I finally found one (or two) that I really like - little Pentax Espio Mini

I guess @fotoapp.co has made it as a platform - the spam bots have arrived 😂

(I am enjoying the app quite a lot, this is not a slight on it at all, just a coming of age thing for the app)

They need to bring back these on camera boxes.
A box from a Sony digital camera, it has a series of labels with capabilities of the camera, such as Hologram AF or Precision Digital 10x zoom

Reminder - the Nationals do not care about regional Australia. They only care about mining profits for billionaires. That's it. Everything else is theatre.

Pentax Espio Mini - "untested" and beaten up. Absolute bargain, and works perfectly :)

Turns out if you load up some UltraMax and use fresh chemicals the OM-10 is really fun to shoot with and can produce some nice photos - my skill not withstanding. The zoom I have that I think back focuses maybe does at infinity, but other than that, it's good!

I shot (a second) roll of Phoenix II.

After the light leaks of the 120 roll I shot, did this one go better?

Foreshadowing - yes, but also no.

Second time processing Phoenix II in ECN-2. Negs came out much thinner than last time. Chemicals might be exhausted 😬

Time to scan and see if they are usable. #FilmPhotography

Some photos from around Christchurch.

Yes, I still have photos to get through from last year in the UK. Yes, I am still going through photos from Easter. But if I don't start this now, would I ever?
