I’m finally getting through various equipment issues – the Leicaflex is back from repair, the enlarger is aligned, the broken Rodagon enlarging lens is on its way back to Germany for repair, and my friends at National Camera hooked me up with a Nikor 80mm lens to do some medium format work in the mean time. It was really satisfying printing that first 6×6 negative and having something real come out of it.
Now the problem is I’ve made a bunch of 11×14″ prints that I can’t scan to share. I setup a makeshift copystand to take pictures of them for now, but they kind of suck, so I’ll be making some smaller prints to share this weekend.
The copystand:
This was the first 6×6 neg I enlarged – It’s a car I shot at the JJ Hill car show we (Bentley \ Maserati) sponsored last year, but unfortunately my hand was not steady and the image was blurry.
Nine Inch Nails puts on a helluva show. I first saw the video for Wish on MTV way back in the summer of 1991, and finally saw them live during the Fragility 1.0 tour, in the Spring of 2000. NIN does not dissapoint – even though this show was rescheduled due to illness, they made it up with a well over 2 hour show tonight. Next year marks 20 years since their first album was released, but somehow I don’t think they’ll ever qualify as classic rock…
Just testing an iPhone app for posting. And this is a picture of a salamander I found in my parking garage, with like 6 more nearby. Apparently they hibernate there.

@zookling call the 5-0 and report a suspicious vehicle. Tell them you think people are doing drugs inside, they love those busts. in reply to zookling1 day ago
