Kodachrome II film was the mainstay of my early photography career. It was manufactured from 1962-74 and had an ISO film speed (then called ASA) of 25. I shot this film in Nikon FTn and F2 cameras, as well as in a Leica M2.

this is from a month ago, but in the sprit of the snow in minneapolis today I thought I'd post it. After all, not everyone is getting full-on spring yet.
How Stanley Kubrick's Editing Conveys a Horrifying Supernatural Vision in The Shining

I'll be forty in forty days and about a month ago I thought, "Hey, I'll do a photo countdown the forty days leading up to my birthday. You know. And stuff."
Then I forgot about it until I looked in my notebook yesterday and realized I had about 10 hours before I was to start this awesome idea.
Except, I had no idea what the awesome idea would be.
So instead, I took this photo and started thinking about all the lessons I've learned in my 349, 498 (sort of accurate) hours of being alive and decided my awesome plan didn't have to be huge and grandiose as 10 hours is not enough time for grandiose unless you're Oprah.
So this is it. I took a photo and it reminded me of a lesson I learned when I was still sleeping in a crib (taking into account that I slept in a crib until I was 5):
Never poop in the tub while your older sister is in it. While you may forget it and there will be no lasting damage done to your delicate psyche, your poor sister will never forget and will take pleasure in reminding you of it at every other major family get together.
And it's just gross.
(I will admit some of these life lessons might be on the weak side. But still important in their own small way.)
Well, I figured I should get my lazy butt up and upload some photos. There are a bundle sitting on my computer, I just haven't had the motivation. I've been super busy with work, and my life is just sort of a mess right now. I hope to get more posted soon though!
Kodak Vollenda 620 camera, a batch of 620 film, and a 1963 National Geographic. I especially like the boxes of REX 620, a black & white roll film made in Belgium and sold in the US by Rexall Drug Stores. The boxes are dated 1963 and 1964.
Swerve opens the Australian Film Festival at Randwick Ritz, Sydney, Australia
Swerve opened the Australian Film Festival tonight at the fabulous Randwick Ritz cinema in Sydney's eastern suburbs.
The film is enjoying its release in the US and Australia simultaneously, with the aim of getting international traction.
Jump Street Films, with production company Duo Art Productions, will release outback neo-noir film Swerve, written and directed by Craig Lahiff, in the US through Cohen Media Group, the same company that handled Oranges and Sunshine in the US.
It's the 3rd year of the film Aussie fest, and there's a strong line up of films aiming for top honours. From the get go let us tell you that we think Swerve has every chance of picking up a number of film awards. We think that this is one of the better Australian full length films in quite a few years. It may not be as popular as 'Red Dog' was, but give it time. This film will endure and its the sort of flick you will highly recommend to your friends.
In terms of storyline and themes, think 'Lantana' meets 'Underbelly' meets 'Dirty Deeds', with a touch of 'Pulp Fiction' and your on the right track. It's a cool thriller, with a suitable outback Australia flavour, a cunning and tough as nails copper (who happens to be married to a super *itch from hell, who carries lots of personal baggage).
After interviewing Australian actor Roy Billing prior to the screening, we knew the film would be gold. Billing said to the effect of "It was great to work with friends again (Emma Booth and director Craig Lahiff). Don't fall asleep or you will miss my bit (he wasn't kidding). When further probed about what the film was about Billing advised its got shades of Underbelly, crooked cops and sexy bits". Billing also half joked that he came to the premiere as he was the only actor who could make it along. It's understood some of the other actors are working overseas, which is a good thing for the Australian movie industry - the fact that the actors are working.
The pitch...
A suitcase full of money, a woman, two men and a gun; a lot can happen in the middle of nowhere.
Driving cross-country to a job interview, Colin plays it safe when he has car problems and takes a short cut to a one horse town. But as luck would have it, he comes across a fatal road accident. One of the drivers, Jina, is shaken, the other dead and beside him, a briefcase full of money. When Colin resists temptation and does the right thing, turning it into the local cop, his good deed causes a series of fateful events to unfold.
Australian Film Festival VIP guests included Craig Lahiff (director); Roy Billing (actor); Robert Mammone (actor); Axle Whitehead (actor/singer); Casey Burgess (TV Personality), Lauren Brant (TV Personality) and Rob Carlton (comedian).
The verdict on Swerve - big thumbs up mate. 4.5 out of 5 stars (or 4.5 out of 5 bullets if you prefer). Warning - you might be scared to travel to the Australian bush or even drive on long Australian highways after seeing this flick.
A great Australian film that appears destined for strong success. Riveting, scary, part funny and 100% Australian.
