this used to be a gamestop that used to be a babbage’s where i bought videogames growing up. this t-mobile was where we got my first cell phone. the pretzel place telltale graffiti from a spencer’s fuck, man. i almost didn’t even go do this today but i’m really glad i did

it’s kind of wild that a company just put out a - ̗̀new ̖́- firmware for a 20+ year old camera, but it adds filmic-look processing to the camera itself which is amazing for me who wants so desperately to avoid editing things on my computer latent ritual on my canon 5d classic #photography

i’ve been having such an urge lately to get a bulk roll of lucky 400 b&w (which i’ve heard is lowkey terrible film), shoot through all of it, and hold on to everything until it’s finished and then trying to home develop it all

i want to shoot a roll for holga week now that i have one, but can’t decide if i pick up a - ̗̀new ̖́- roll of 120 or use one of the 35mm rolls i have

had to interrupt my shitty camera challenge and brought a competent film camera on our trip to salem i’m very surprised this picture came out nicely, it was so dim inside and was a 1 second exposure, leaning against a wall but handheld #filmphotography

out for a walk with a local photography group, got some more mavica pictures for #shittycamerachallenge sometimes i get a picture that i’m very surprised by, this first one is one of those

first round of pictures already for #shittycamerachallenge it’s a lot of #clouds mavica did okay, one disk started giving the format error again but switching it out started working with others. probably switched through 8 floppy disks on these flights

time to get shitty. just to up the shit factor this camera at some point stopped reading disks, but some percussive maintenance has fixed it again for now #shittycamerachallenge

it's so funny to me that my 5D *almost* fits this criteria. compact flash is a dead format right? 12MP is nearly under 10. just a 20 year old 'prosumer' dslr and it's so close to being "shitty" glad i have the mavica (and a holga) to use instead because the 5d is way too good

My Fellow Shitters. Behold! The Elder Gods have decreed a #ShittyCameraChallenge will take place in 2026. You have a few weeks to choose your shitty camera and join us from July 1st to September 30th 2026. Let Shitty Commence!

it has been so wild going from listening to a comedy advice podcast with no continuity for the past 3.5 years or so, finishing the backlog of episodes, and switching over to a linear story-driven d&d podcast because now there are ✨cliffhangers✨ yes this is about the brothers mcelroy

i did go through another roll of 35mm in the holga, at a drift event plus a group photo walk through a cemetary mixed results but when it hits, it hits. a real medium format camera may be required some time soon™

i have one last roll of film to put through my holga before i want to lock the fuck back in to using my a-1. feels like i've been trying to do too much and really want to focus on one platform probably a short detour with the mavica in july for the #shittycamerachallenge

telling myself i’m boycotting forza horizon 6 because no hiace, but in reality i’ve heard it doesn’t run amazing on steam deck. passing on it for now but if they ever add a hiace it’s instant. also still sucked in to death stranding 2

i’ve ended up with quite a few friends on pikmin bloom from overseas, and have taken to policing myself with postcards when exchanging them to not use ones with churches, or send fast food related decor pikmin, so as to not be such a stereotype

local group photo walk today, it was overcast and going through a cemetery. decided to put my camera over to monochrome and then turn down the exposure compensation, and i kinda think this picture goes crazy #photography
