Retrospective 2025: And then it’s gone

Retrospective 2025: More of Michelle (January 2025) Sunset light changes quickly. Each moment has a different quality

Retrospective 2025: Michelle (January 2025) We later found out that we weren’t allowed to shoot in the hallway. But the sunset was so nice

Retrospective 2025: Kim J (January 2025) Selling prints 8x10 to 16x20. DM for details

As a diversion from my retrospective, here is @katlynlacoste.bsky.social The thing that I love about this photo is that it’s real. Not contrived. Just an unguarded moment

Human trafficking is indeed despicable but I have a problem with individuals & organizations who equate all sex work with trafficking. Paternal and dismissive of those who choose to pursue sex work voluntarily dismissing their agency by promoting a dichotomy that men are either exploiters or saviors

Retrospective 2025: @astridkallsen.bsky.social Blinded by the Light (January 2025)

Can our year (country) be saved?

I was referring to my medium format film rangefinder, the GW690iii, sometimes referred to as the Texas Leica because of its size. I also shoot with a digital X100VI. I love both of them

Criticism from the current Israeli government means that you are doing something right

I will. Currently working on my 2025 retrospective, but I’ll sprinkle these in later in my day

I posted about this in a Nikon forum. 2 good points were made. • It takes a lot of practice to hone your style • capturing a moving subject requires rapid continuous shots. Capturing a still subject does not.

I used to go to a shop called Camera Care on Arch Street in Philadelphia. Next to a tattoo parlor before tattoos were mainstream. A part of town that was Chinatown, Skid Row, and the photo district combined. I mostly traded there, but the Fuji was the one I bought new. I still have it and use it

Hmm!

I completely agree. Sometimes, I just follow up with digital as insurance. In case something goes wrong with the film.

The aesthetic was new, but it has lasted a long time

70 years ago and timeless. Will my photos remain interesting, and not just nostalgic, 70 years from now?

This is why our future is hopeless

I really love this

I don’t know, the longer I pursue photography, the fewer frames I shoot. I tend to push the button more when the subject bores me. This kind of thinking reminds me of the Infinite Monkey Theorem. Shoot enough frames and you may accidentally get a good shot.

I hope you like it @katlynlacoste.bsky.social today

First shoot of 2026 (not counting the band I covered last night) This is @katlynlacoste.bsky.social She is fabulous

Who doesn’t get a rush of emotion hearing this?

In 2025, I took a lot of photos which I did not give adequate attention. I think I’ll spend a good amount of this month going through and sharing them. Here is a photo of @artdecomodel.bsky.social that I really like. I think she looks pensive, but relaxed. I hope you like it as much as I do

I hope you have a great 2026! Here is @artdecomodel.bsky.social with flower petals

How ironic that Qanon was right, that they just targeted the wrong end of the political spectrum

The “Christian” right tries to get us to forget that most of our nation’s founders were actually Deists, not Christians. And that many of the colonists came here to escape state-sponsored religious tyranny

This is Kate (@artdecomodel.bsky.social) Some photos for my friends in Europe and east. I will be posting from a different set for my friends in the western hemisphere later today. Have a wonderful New Year’s Eve Eve!
