Finally loaded up my backpack with some books for donation and the latest zine to disperse. Got zines in two libraries, gave one to a friendly group asking about my photography and traded another at the zine fest in town. More to deliver. #littlefreelibrary #zines #art #lancasterpa #photography

Was a no-brainer to stop and take a few frames of this classic. Nikon FG-20 | Arista EDU 100 | CineStill df96 | Epson V600 dev. 4/4/25 #filmphotography #BelieveInFilm #chevynova #lancasterpa #photography #art #monochrome #classiccar #50mmprime #nikon

Rain today delayed my plans to deliver my latest zine to little free libraries and ended up writing an unplanned blog. #filmphotography #zenofpractice #blog #lancasterpa #art #smallbusiness #grassrootsphotography #writing zenofpractice.blogspot.com/2025/04/film...

Dropped the negatives on the bathmat while hanging and didn't do the best job cleaning the cat hair and dust before the scan. Will now be hanging negatives on the left side of tub. #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #filmcommunity #lancasterpa #photography #art #50mmprime #EastCoastKin #monochrome

My first official blog post on Blogger. A little about my day today in photography. #blog #filmphotography #lancasterpa #handsoff #art #monochrome zenofpractice.blogspot.com/2025/04/hand...

Did not realize I had used the old chemistry of df96 until pouring it back into the bottle and observed to myself, "That's dark". Negatives came out pretty faint but pleased with the scan setting tweaks. Arista EDU 100 Nikon FG-20 #filmphotography #lancasterpa #homedevelop #EastCoastKin #art

Time to scour for some more little libraries. April issue of zine has arrived and ready to be dispersed in the next few days. Don't remember exact location of this library. #zines #FreeLittleLibrary #lancasterpa #filmphotography #art #smallbusiness #postcards #grassrootsphotography

First time shooting Cinestill 400D. 2nd develop for the fresh batch of Cinestill cs41 chemistry mixed mid-March. Took advantage of my rarely shooting film in color to capture some of the budding spring. Nikon FG-20 #filmphotography #lancasterpa #spring #art #photography #EastCoastKin

Exciting day today. First caffenol trial

Next zine off to the press. More walking in my future capturing this adopted home city. My life story contains a lot of moves but now holds the title for length of time being a resident. Arista 100 | Minolta XG7 | df96 | V600 #filmphotography #zines #postcards #lancasterpa #art #monochrome

Scan session underway to complete the photowalk, develop and scan day. Bungled the manual film load that resulted in a few lost frames and a mismatched shot counter. #filmlife #filmphotography #shootfilmstaybroke #filmisalive #filmisnotdead #homedevelop #practice

Love the collection of zines I just received from @kzoofilmphoto.bsky.social Beautiful art, innovative methods and vital education. All for an important cause.

Good news came from this develop. Proved that the Minolta XG-7 did not malfunction and that the culprit for the back-to-back blank rolls was not user error. Final diagnosis: Cs41 solution expired. Time to mix new batch. 'Parking Lot' Pan 400 df96 #filmphotography #monochrome #lancasterpa #practice
