As mentioned a couple of days ago, I’m looking to replace Lightroom (and Photoshop… and Apple) in my photography workflow, and to that end, I’m testing RAW file editing and digital photo softwares to see what my options are. Before I start posting my results (there’s one already tested and discarded), I thought it might …

Ansco Versapan 125
I loaded the old film into the old camera today, and thought maybe you’d like to see the unboxing… Do people share unboxings of old, expired black & white film? Well, I guess I do… especially since it’s kinda cool. So I acquired this film from the bay… $9.95 + shipping. Good deal? Average? Rip …
Coming Soon… or Sometime, InshaAllah
Just a head’s up, the blog may go a bit quiet for a bit. I have two projects in mind, both just begun: First, Adobe’s recent update to Lightroom, while exciting, has me looking at alternatives.

Thirty Six, during and after the rain
Alhamdulillah, April showers have been plentiful this year. And Thirty Six performed admirably with my “Another Day” film stock.

Thirty Six gone for a walk
One of the luxuries of getting off work early is being able to take walks with my darling, adorable wife in the mid afternoon. There’s a new housing development going in across the street where we usually go to walk. I’ve shared some pictures from there before, including one of Hana descending a staircase. Well, …
