Another rose, Daniel? It's almost Christmas time. Its not even winter yet and we've already had a cold winter. Not a fan and I want my hot weather back.

Today's shower soundtrack: A.A. Bondy's American Jearts album. A bluesy Americana trip through epic lyrics. This is an A+ album and a must listen.

Today's shower soundtrack: Cowboys Junkies' Pale Sun Crescent Moon. The voice of a siren drawing me into the rocky shore. I haven't listened to thos album in a few decades but oh my. This is heaven

Nov 19 - A young mom and her cub strolling across the beach, testing the newly formed sea ice of the Hudson ahead Due to a late #winter, sea ice has been slow to form, & the #bears have gone over 6 months without a meal Despite their hunger, they walked right by us, paying no attention #wildlife

Apparently, I'm going to learn how to grow mushrooms now.

From my Sunday walk. It was cold and drab. Our weather has been so much colder than normal for weeks and gray. I think it's important for me to force myself outside to take pictures.

Another negative space shot but this one is a water theme. I saw this crusieship getting ready to leave port and took the opportunity for a shot. To think they can go so quickly to tropical ports from chilly Norfolk.

Today's shower soundtrack: it's a repeat of this album. Why, because its so damn amazing?!

A pink rose. Last weekend, the roses were blooming but we had a hard freeze. So, the rose season is officially over now. I tend to like roses when they are opened up so I can do close macro of the petals.

I took this image because I liked the cast shadow on the other wall. In WW2, they had 16 inch guns mounted up top. It was an addition inside the older 1810s fort walls. Thos is shot on Kodak TMAX400 with my Nikon F6.

Today's shower soundtrack: Slipnot's Iowa album. Hopefully, I'm didn't wake my neighbors on this early Saturday morning. Also, I javelin a pork butt in the smoker that I started at 5:00. Should be nice for dinner.

笠松紫浪『春の夜――銀座』。この版画に描かれている風景は昭和初期のものです。昭和初期というとちょうど近代から現代への過渡期に当たっており、通りを行き交う人々の中には和装の者もいれば洋装の者もいます。また画面の奥のほうにモダンな建物が建っているのに対して、手前にはもうまったく見かけなくなった寿司の屋台があります。この版画はこのような過渡期特有の空間、古いものと新しいものが共存している魅力的な空間を描き出しています。 #アート

As it rains yet again this week, I share a camellia flower. They are starting their winter bloom cycle. I probably should plant a few in my yard but I've lost most of my shade.

“Play high, Hooky, play high!” - how Joy Division’s signature sound inspired Fontaines DC… In case you missed it, my episode of ‘Greatest Basslines’ airs again tonight at 10pm on Sky Arts (Freeview channel 36). It is also available on demand right now on Sky TV.

#believeinfilm #filmphotography #monochrome #darkroom #MerseyMeetUp Another from the recent photowalk in Liverpool. HP5+ at ISO 800. 85mm lens.

Every once in a while, I play around with negative space. I took this inside of the walls of Fort Monroe which is a super cool old fort with a still active moat. Shot in Kodak TMAX400 with my Nikon F6. #filmphotography #believeinfilm

Not a bad stem on this lady. Still has a few weeks of growth left. Shiskaberry x Cake. Smells like spices and couchlock.

So here is the rest of the series I shot Sunday where my focus was on a color for an image. It gave me a little challenge to keep photography interesting.

Today's shower soundtrack: MF Doom's Special Herbs . This is instrumental and perfect to get ready with in the morning.

I walked the botanical garden yesterday in search of color. My goal was to fill images with a singular color irrespective of the thing I was shooting. So today is tue color gold from a Dawn Redwood. They are such a pretty tree and very similar to our Bald Cypress.

Old VW bus resting. Taken with Velvia 50, Planar 50mm and Maxxum 7.

A walk in the park. Its been unseasonally cold this holiday weekend but sunny. I've made it a point to be outside as much as possible. Shot on Kodak TMAX400 with my Nikon F3. #filmphotography #believeinfilm

It's another unreasonably cold day today. A little photos and a little coffee.

Nothing wrong with a little graffiti on a dumpster bin. #virginiabeach

Yellow Zfc Nikon Nokton Classic 35mm f1.4 Voigtlander

Yesterday, I shot 6 sheets of Delta 100 in 4x5. They were all crap photos so here's a digital shot of something completely different. Ha.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've seen: 1. Tool 2. Tribe Called Quest/ Beastie Boys 3. Dinosaur Jr. 4. The Hives 5. Social Distortion Honestly, I used to go to lots of concerts so it's all a mixed bag of music. Also, Social Distortion is the only show I've ever been kicked out of in my life

Sunrise and coffee at the oceanfront. A cold front came through last night so there was a salty sweet chill in the air. Happy Thanksgiving to those who partake.

My jalapeños made it to Thanksgiving. So, I expect to cook up some fresh ones tomorrow. Next challenge will be having papers for Christmas. Think I'll have any? PS, my bananas are still active.

An old truck shot on Kodak 400tx. This entire property is covered in these trucks. #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Today's shower soundtrack: The Avalanches' Wildflower album. This is just really good and pepping. Perfect morning soundtrack. #albumoftheday

Methods of distraction include wigging out over the hidden details of nature. Proven effective time and again! Unrelated pro tip: There's only one way to host Thanksgiving, and that is to do as much as possible in advance. #flowers #photography

Today's shower soundtrack: The Smiths' Hatful of Hollow album. Sheer excellence in modern rock. The edit on this album allows the band to explore a bit and shine over idiots voice. I like his voice BTW but he is terrible.

Today's shower soundtrack: Gin Blossoms's 1992 New Miserable Experience. The melancholy album late November deserves. My old boss at the record store wore out this album when it came debuted #albumoftheday

“Where Autumn Breathes Light” #believeinfilm #filmphotography #halfframefriday #HFF #pentax17 #ektar100

I come home from work just now and there's a beautiful but lonely rose flower.

Today's shower soundtrack: Stone Roses' self titled album. Rest in Peace Mani.

Crab bushels waiting to be filled. Shot on Portra 400. #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Anna May Wong by Ruth Harriet Louise, 1927.

The stairwell shot on Lomo Purple with my Nikon F6. Love an old stairwell. #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Coffee, Grape Ape, 3 mile walk in the woods of First Landing State Park. Bliss. ------------------- I was feeling down this morning and knew this would be the best pick me up. Also, it's really nice outside. 65 degrees in the morning with dappled light through the clouds.

A bit of autumn flowers on this house's fence gate. I need to get out today with my camera. It's its not raining or cold, and it's November. I know weather this time of year cannot be taken for granted. #50mmproject #photography

A4 I share my photos with Bluesky, Instagram, and Tiktok. I still find a lot of usefulness with Instagram for local photographers. It's how I've met people and continue to do so. #photochat

A3 I use Capture One. It works like a blend of Lightroom and Photoshop. It does. For film, I use Filmlab. #photochat

A2 my November challenge is 50mm. I am using only digital with my Nikon Z8 and the 50mm 1.8 s glass. After this month, I will decide my next challenge. Maybe December will be expired color film.

I would say that 90% of my photography is based on my coffee consumption in the morning. I get motivated and jump in the car so there's little planning at play. The other 10% are ideas I have floating in my head on for vacations. I do have objectives on the 90% so not all winging it. #photochat
