Did a shoot for a friend. For an upcoming magazine article. I guess I do model shoots now? Used a studio light for the first time, outside of practice at home. www.espressobuzz.net/Events/2025/...

TIL: Apartheid means "apartness" in Dutch.

New scans of found slides.

New scans of found slides. Sometimes people accidentally take very intriguing photos.

When will I first hear someone mispronounce a word because they learned it from an A.I. speaking? It's like people who learned a word only by reading, and never learned its real sound.

Just another weekend camping, that's all.

Funkrust Brass Band in Georgetown, Seattle, for the first day of Honkfest West.

Good party last night at HazardFactory.

10/10. Would Honk afterparty again.

Honkfest is this weekend.

Ah, South Park, Seattle.

I missed all 3s.

Color correcting old magenta slides.

2nd try at wet plate (tintype) photography. I expected failure. It's the only way to learn.

Co-pilot in VSCode is amazing. I wanted a script to rename all jpgs in a folder to the date/time they were taken. I was done in like 15 minutes, tweaking/fixing the code it suggested.

Sure, I'll shoot your wake where friends take pictures with you while you're in a coffin. Fun party!

1964 New York World's Fair. Found photos. Shot by the actor Allen Case.

Odd memory cards accumulate.

Holga prepped for wet plate photos.

Brother's fiance gave me an Olympus AE-1, and some old unshot film. I overexposed it for its age, and some shots were OK.

Just scanned some slides from a 1975 Venice, CA festival. More: www.espressobuzz.net/Found/AllenC...

Lost track of the photographer, but just look at the fantastic lighting on this wet plate photo. I want to do stuff like this.

Meeting a friend Sunday who's graciously giving me some of her family photos she's culling.

Girl of the Month. Unknown date or place.

Tintypes given to me by a friend.

I love these old photo booth or photo studio prints. Were they originally this sepia? Who were these people?

Cory Booker, Senator from New Jersey, has been speaking on the Senate floor for almost 24hrs now. The longest filibuster in U.S. history was conducted by Senator Strom Thurmond, who spoke for 24 hours and 18 minutes against the Civil Rights Act of 1957. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCUK...

I was about to read a long article about how Meta used 1000s of books to train its AI without asking if it was OK with authors (who are pissed). But it was a long article, so I had ChatGPT summarize it for me into one paragraph. Had to laugh at the irony of doing that.

Gutted that a photog friend passed away unexpectedly. Such a kind friendship & great photographer.

The woman on FB marketplace who sold me 2lbs of negatives before has 6lbs now. Am I interested?

Finished the fire performer photos from 'brunch' last Saturday. www.espressobuzz.net/Events/2025/...

TFW a )*( founder (DR) writes to say he's thinning out his vintage photo collection and what is my mailing address? :) I guess I've got a reputation for collecting old photos. 😜
