We’re having one of our rare 100+ degrees days. Nacho the Pug is having a hard time dealing with it. My solution is to wet him down thoroughly. I’ll take him for a very short walk this evening.
The picture is a section from a TRI-X negative. What I love about it is the grain. This is a straight scan, with no processing.
The chores were the usual: laundry and vacuuming. In other news, I love my film cameras, the Nikon F3, the Leica IIf, and the Rollei 35. I have digital cameras that I like, but film cameras are the ones I love.
Today I did my usual chores, cooking veggie burgers for my pug, and doing the laundry. Besides that I’ve been planning to sell some of my cameras on EBay to save enough money for a Cintiq. Currently I’m using a Huion 22-inch pen display. It works but I want a device that has a matte screen, a better stylus with tilt and rotation, and a better feel. I bought the Huion because it was cheap. Instead of going for quality (Wacom), I went for price (Huion). My thinking was “How could it really be much different? And it’s so much cheaper.”
I’ll be selling a Canon 6D, a 24-105mm f/4 lens, A Polaroid Model 95 retrofitted to use Fuji instant film, and a Nikon F3 with f/1.4 lens. Once I have the Cintiq I’ll sell my Huion. I’m not thrilled about selling on Ebay, but I’ll do it.
