We had a great session making some natural light images in my studio, courtesy of a set of double doors to the outside.
okay flickr friends. i have some questions i hope you can help to answer.
first of all, i found this camera yesterday. you may know i was seriously considering a wide angle lens for my trip to ireland but prices are steep. then i stumbled upon this little guy and figured:
a) MUCH cheaper than a wide angle lens
b) probably much lighter too (weight WILL be an issue since i'm flying)
c) no batteries needed
d) i love film
so i really think i'm going to get one before i hop across the pond. i've told evin i want it but if he decides not to get it then i'll buy it myself. so, that's point 1.
point 2 is the film issue. i also figured i'd like some fancy film i can't buy at walmart for christmas too. i was just looking around the lomography site and the urban outfitters one and found this. i've never shot lomo film before (and am not really clear on what "color negative" means) but figured it might be fun. any suggestions on whether i should use this special film in the camera mentioned above or what? i'm not sure how lomo film works in non-lomo cameras. suggestions on this or any other film recommendations?
SO.
other than that (if you're still reading) i'm going to list all the photography stuff i want for christmas, both for input and for my reference. hopefully you'll suggest things i've left out :)
1. 35mm prime lens
2. reversing ring
3. polarizing filter
4. other filters
5. wide angle camera
6. new/interesting film
7. wireless remote and/or cable release
8. ?
thanks in advance :)
ps this is another film shot, unedited, from the trip to the cascades a month and a half-ish ago.

With his smooth, boyish good looks, American actor Richard Cromwell (1910-1960) had the makings of a Hollywood star in the early 1930s. The handsome actor became well known with The Lives of a Bengal Lancer (1935), sharing top billing with Gary Cooper and Franchot Tone. His film career reached its pinnacle with Jezebel (1938) with Bette Davis and Henry Fonda and John Ford's Young Mr. Lincoln (1939) also with Fonda. But soon after that, his meteoric career crashed and burned.
Richard Cromwell was born LeRoy Melvin Radabaugh in Long Beach, California, in 1910. he was the second of five children of Fay B. (née Stocking) and Ralph R. Radabaugh, who was an inventor. In 1918, when Radabaugh was still in grade school, his father died of the Spanish flu. Roy earnestly delivered morning newspapers to help out the family's budget crisis. on a scholarship, he attended the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles, a precursor to the California Institute of the Arts. He continued to work part-time as a maintenance man, custodian and soda jerk. He set up a small art shop in Hollywood in the late 1920s and made masks and oil paintings there. He sold pictures, made lampshades, and designed colour schemes for houses. The handsome Cromwell made contacts with film stars of the time such as Anna Q. Nilsson, Colleen Moore, Beatrice Lillie, Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford and Tallulah Bankhead, some of whom he also immortalised in his paintings and masks. He painted scenery for community theatre productions and eventually took on acting roles. His first film appearance was an extra role in King of Jazz (John Murray Anderson, Walter Lantz, 1930), along with the film's star, Paul Whiteman and his orchestra. On a whim, his friends encouraged him to audition for the lead role in a Columbia remake of D.W. Griffith's silent classic Tol'able David (1921) starring Richard Barthelmess. Radabaugh won the role over thousands of hopefuls. In storybook fashion, studio mogul Harry Cohn gave him his screen name Richard Cromwell and launched his career. Cromwell earned $75 per week for his work on Tol'able David (John G. Blystone, 1930), which co-starred Noah Beery Sr. and John Carradine. Gary Brumburgh at IMDb: "the studio publicity machines worked overtime to promote both the film and their new leading man. Richard lived up to all the hype once the reviews came out, giving a terrific debut performance in a very difficult role. As the rather weak-willed young boy who finds the strength and courage to right the injustice done to him, he hit overnight stardom". Amid the flurry of publicity, Cromwell toured the country and was even invited to the White House to meet President Herbert Hoover. Cohn signed Cromwell to a multi-year contract based on the strength of his performance and the success at the box office of his debut. In the following years, Richard played several leading roles in smaller films, often in youthful, somewhat sensitive roles. Leslie Halliwell later described him in his Filmgoer's Companion as the "friendly hero of the early talkies". Cromwell maintained a deep friendship with Marie Dressler, which continued until her death from cancer in 1934. Dressler personally insisted that her studio bosses cast Cromwell on a loan-out in the lead opposite her in Emma (Clarence Brown, 1932), also with Myrna Loy. Dressler was nominated for a second Best Actress award for her portrayal of the title role in Emma. This was another break that helped sustain Cromwell's rising status in Hollywood. He was now much in demand and his next roles were in The Age of Consent (Gregory La Cava, 1932) co-starring Arline Judge and Eric Linden, Tom Brown of Culver (William Wyler, 1932), and Hoopla (Frank Lloyd, 1933), where he is seduced by Clara Bow, in her final film. He made an early standout performance as the leader of the youth gang in Cecil B. DeMille's unusual cult-favourite, This Day and Age (1933). To ensure that Cromwell's character used the right slang, DeMille asked high school student Horace Hahn to read the script and comment. Cromwell then starred with Jean Arthur in Most Precious Thing in Life (Lambert Hillyer, 1934). He had his definitive breakthrough when he co-starred with Gary Cooper and Franchot Tone in the adventure film The Lives of a Bengal Lancer (Henry Hathaway, 1935), which was nominated for seven Oscars. Cromwell played the son of a senior officer who is tortured by insurgents. His father refuses to rescue him in order to demonstrate his impartiality. After this promising start, Cromwell's career received a bump when he wanted more artistic independence.
Richard Cromwell's next pictures at Columbia Pictures and elsewhere were mostly inconsequential. Cromwell starred with Will Rogers in Life Begins at 40 (1935) and appeared in Poppy (1936) as the suitor of W.C. Fields' daughter, Rochelle Hudson. In 1937, he portrayed the young bank robber in love with Helen Mack and on the lam from Lionel Atwill in The Wrong Road (James Cruze, 1937). A challenge was his lead role in The Road Back (James Whale, 1937), a sequel to the classic All Quiet on the Western Front (Lewis Milestone, 1930). The film chronicled the story of young German soldiers readjusting to civilian life after WWI. Fearful that this film would not do well in Germany, the new regime at Universal Pictures severely edited the film before release, removing much of the strongly anti-Nazi slant that author Erich Maria Remarque included in the original novel, and which director James Whale had intended to retain in the film version. The resulting film was not well-received. Richard Cromwell took a detour in his career to Broadway for the chance to star as an evil cadet in an original play by Joseph Viertel, 'So Proudly We Hail!'. The military drama was directed by future film director Charles Walters, co-starred Edward Andrews and Eddie Bracken, and opened to much fanfare. The New York Herald Tribune called Cromwell's acting "a striking portrayal" and The New York Times said that he "ran the gamut of emotions" in the play. Cromwell had shed his restrictive Columbia contract and pursued acting work as a freelancer in other media. Cromwell guest-starred on the radio in 'The Royal Gelatin Hour' (1937) hosted by Rudy Vallee, in a dramatic skit opposite Fay Wray. Enjoying the experience, Cromwell acted in the role of Kit Marshall on the radio soap opera Those We Love, which ran from 1938 until 1942. On-screen, Cromwell appeared in Storm Over Bengal (Sidney Salkow, 1938), for Republic Pictures, in order to capitalise on his success in The Lives of a Bengal Lancer. He stood out in supporting roles as Henry Fonda's brother, who kills a man in a duel of honour, in the romantic drama Jezebel (William Wyler, 1938) starring Bette Davis and as defendant Matt Clay to Henry Fonda's title performance in Young Mr. Lincoln (John Ford, 1939). In 1939, Cromwell again tried his luck on stage in a regional production of Sutton Vane's play 'Outward Bound', co-starring Dorothy Jordan. Cromwell drifted into secondary features. He enjoyed an active social Hollywood life with friends including Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Crawford, Franchot Tone, George Cukor, Cole Porter and William Haines. For Universal Pictures, Cromwell starred as a draftsman who thwarts the Nazis in Enemy Agent. He went on to appear in marginal but still watchable fare such as Baby Face Morgan (Arthur Dreifuss, 1942), with Mary Carlisle. Cromwell enjoyed a career boost with Cosmo Jones, Crime Smasher (1943), the film adaptation of the hit radio serial. However, he was next up at Monogram Pictures, where he was cast as a doctor working covertly for a police department to catch mobsters in the forgettable though endearing Riot Squad.
During the last two years of World War II, Richard Cromwell served with the United States Coast Guard. Upon returning to California following the war's end, he acted in local theatre productions. He also signed on for live performances in summer stock in the East during this period. Cromwell's break from films due to his stint in the Service meant that he was not much in demand after the War's end. He failed to make a comeback as a film actor with a role in the Film Noir Bungalow 13 (Edward L. Cahn, 1948) and he retired from the film industry. All told, Cromwell's film career spanned 39 films. In the 1950s, he returned to his artistic roots and studied ceramics. He built a pottery studio on his property, becoming especially known and admired for his creative tile designs. Returning to the name Roy Radabaugh, Cromwell also wrote extensively, producing several published stories and an unfinished novel in the 1950s. Cromwell was married once, briefly (1945–1946), to actress Angela Lansbury, when she was 19 and Cromwell was 35. They were married in a small civil ceremony in Independence, California. Lansbury later stated in a 1966 interview that her first marriage was a mistake because Cromwell was gay. His homosexuality had been kept secret from the public and Lansbury had not known about it before the marriage. However, Cromwell and Lansbury remained friends until his death in 1960. She later described him as "charming with a good knowledge of jazz music". In 1960 he tried a second comeback in the film business. In July 1960, Cromwell signed with producer Maury Dexter for 20th Century Fox's planned production of The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come (Andrew V. McLaglen, 1961), starring singer Jimmie Rogers. Diagnosed with liver cancer shortly thereafter, he was forced to withdraw and Chill Wills replaced Cromwell in the film. Richard Cromwell was a heavy smoker for many years and at times advertised Lucky Strike. He died on 11 October 1960 in Hollywood, at the age of 50. He is interred at Fairhaven Memorial Park in Santa Ana, California. For his services to the film industry, Cromwell has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (1627 Vine Street). Cromwell's legacy is preserved today by his nephew Dan Putnam and his cousin Bill Keane IV. In 2005, Keane donated materials relating to Cromwell's radio performances to the Thousand Oaks Library's Special Collection, "The American Radio Archive". In 2007, Keane donated memorabilia relating to Cromwell's film career and ceramics work to the AMPAS Margaret Herrick Library in Beverly Hills.

TEXTo do email do padre Alfredo:
Arde mais em mim a febre de M.R., de 3 anos, abandonada à própria sorte pelo poder público de Salvador e da Bahia. O virus do HIV-AIDS com o qual não pediu pra nasacer, mata-a menos que o descaso, a burocracia, a incompetência e a inoperância.
M.R. dorme esta noite no Hospital Couto Maia, com pneumonia e fome, 26 dias após o fechamento da creche que a acolhia e alimentava diariamente. O silêncio de quem tem o dever de zelar por sua integridade, dói na carne da multidão indignada, como eu, com tanta inoperância e descaso.
Dia 6 as famílias das crianças com AIDS e sem abrigo ecoou pelas ruas de Salvador. J.S.chorava mais alto a dor da saudade da filha vitimada pelo omissão de muitos em 20.11.2007, no mesmo Hospital que hoje acolhe a pequena M.R.
A vida dessas crianças clama por justiça, que se não vem pela força do direito, torna-se vulnerável ao direito da força - a única que resta às famílias das 39 crianças com AIDS e aos quem com elas conVIVEMOS.
Não podemos assistir calados ao massacre destes inocentes.
Vendo o ocaso das crianças com HIV/AIDS abandonadas à própria sorte, choro pela saúde desta sociedade e deste poder público que convive silencioso com um infanticídio anunciado.
Pobre Salvador, pobre Bahia, que há de levar para a eternidade este testemunho de injustiça de violação de direitos dos pequenos.
pe Alfredo
A casas das crianças com HIV/AIDS da IBCM foi fechada dia 11.10, por falta de recursos. Dia 20 faleceu a pequena Deise e as demais 39 crinaças definam a olhos vistos. M.R. permanece no Hospital Cout Mai, com penumonia e seus 2 irmãos menores estão em casa de pessoas amigas, no bairro de Pernambués. Sua mãe, também soropositiva etá desesperada.

I couldn't help going back to some old work and seeing it with a new processing eye. This is still one of my favorite buildings. I know there's alot of talk about the negative image that urban decay photographs portray of Detroit. However, abandoned buildings do tell a large part of the Detroit story. As a Detroit photographer, I just want to paint a picture of the city that is compelling and not one sided...

Obviously that State Prison System had only the best equipment circa 1986.
Officer Smith was a prime example of efficiency, rocking his TANDY 1000SL and its Intel 8086 processor running at 8 MHz and 384k of RAM.

Right now, it's a bit crazy here.
The scooter & sidecar are still separated
so, the scooter was taken on a short run.
By short, a really short run as the brakes
have all seized up tighter than a county
jail house in the middle of a lockdown.
But, along with Mr Monkey we're
still plugging along inch by inch.

The LP's I kept when we moved - the ones I wanted - were flooded as our wash sewer line clogged. Luckily it wasn't the toilet line ;) ... but it was shower water, dishwasher water, clothes wash water... The LPs covers have started to grow some fuzz. I'm not sure what to do, take them out doors into some dry warm place and let them dry, buy a DJ cartridge that tracks at 4 grams? Meanwhile I don't like the dark stain that is on the walls of the basement... that can be expensive.
So anyway, Spirit uses water to teach us. in this case it is about non-attachment and humbleness. Or the value of non physical music storage?
I got my new danbo in the mail today, me and my friend were so exited :D we spent hours just taking pictures of it
