Goals are important to life. None of us will ever get anywhere without them. For many of us though, goals are subsumed by the mechanics of daily life. They decay into dreams, and finally into regrets. Camera: Voigtlander Bessa 66 Film: Ektar 100 Developed at home (Unicolor kit, JOBO) & scanned on Epson v700.

Week 51 – G.A.S
I am a long-time sufferer of G.A.S. - Gear Acquisition Syndrome. This has led to a large camera collection and forays into many odd formats. This past year I forced myself to stop buying, slim the collection, and become more familiar with the hardware I already own. I still have moments of weakness though. Recently… Continue reading Week 51 – G.A.S

I'm very happy with the results. This last one is my absolute favorite. Red tractor, blue… Continue reading Week 42 – SFX200
Week 41 – Transporterfest / Seagull results
I had high hopes for my 203-i. On paper it looks like a great camera. My first experience was otherwise, but it got better. My gripes are small, but they kept me from enjoying the camera. The leather case is thick enough that it casts a shadow on the film windows, making accurate film advance… Continue reading Week 41 – Transporterfest / Seagull results
