Reprieve

I just returned from LA:


With my boyfriend:


It was wonderful. I bought a new toy:
I will post photos of the trip as I develop (a lot) of them.

Olympus Wooden Digital

In 2006, Olympus came out with a prototype for a digital camera with a wooden casing. I'm not sure if it will go into production, but I hope so because it's neat.

PS---because of the treatment they do on the wood casings, each camera is visually unique.

My Beloved Cameras

Kodak Duaflex II, takes 620 film. Have yet to take photos with it, but I believe it still works.

Yashica Lynx 1000. 35mm film.

Olympus OM-1. 35mm film.

Lomo Fisheye 1. 35mm film.Lomo Actionsampler with Flash. 35mm film.

Lomo Oktomat. 35mm film.

Lomo Diana F+ in Hong Meow. Complete w/ all accessories. 120, or 35mm film.

Kodak Brownie 127 that I found at my grandma's house. Update: I found a place to buy 127film online. and not from Croatia.

Fuji Film Instax Wide. Fuji Instax Wide film.

This was the biggest photo I could find of this one. 2wayvista panorama. It's 27mm lens takes panoramic pictures. wonderful. 35mm film.

and finally, R.I.P. Lomo Supersampler (in pink). My first lomo camera. It was put to good use, and the advance-cord broke. I will miss your vignettes. (on 35mm film)

Predicament

Yesterday, I found a Kodak Brownie 127 at my grandma's house:Which only takes this film:Which takes wonderful photographs such as this vintage one:
Which is only in production by this company:Which, unfortunately, is only produced in Croatia:I've read that I can potentially cut 120film to fit into the 127film format. But I'm not sure if I want to do that. Hmmm.

Post-Mortem Photography

aka--Death Portraits, Memorial Portraiture, or Memento Mori.
[the practice of photographing the recently deceased]
{height of popularity in the 1800s}
Examples:

Coney Island

I've just become overwhelmed by the urge to go to Coney Island and photograph run-down everything/anything.

Vintage Sartorial Reel

Yashica Lynx 1000

These are some shots from the test roll; Still figuring the camera out, but i like the weird effects that I produced by accident.

Unique Thrift Find

Matthew & I found this at Unique Thrift today- I bought it for $50 & spent a test roll today; I'm picking up the prints when I get off of work & will post tonight. I hope they come out well!!!

Well, I Just Bought These...

They're Jeffrey Campbell boots and I love them.

Dancing Cokehead

STOMP. Flight of the Conchords Style.

• Diana Flash
• Hot shoe adaptors (one for camera, one for flash)
• Cable Release Collar and cable release
• Splitzer
• Diana 35mm Back + 4 masks for 4 formats

And also, because I spent so much money [although I saved SO much!!!]...they threw in these gems for freeeeeee:

3 rolls of Klick film [expired, but who cares]
The lomo notebook--I already went through one of them, but they're really incredible on the inside. And...
...a Lomo slingshot bag- You can't really read it from this picture, but it has a print of the ten golden rules of lomography on it.

My order won't get processed until Monday. And then I won't see my camera for a week. But......I can't wait.
The flash is black, by the way.

[I'm excited.]
