Self-portrait in my bathroom. Taken one month ago, immediately after after my last trip to Attitudes, 13 October 2009.

Seeing the world through my viewfinder.
Empty Chairs At Empty Tables
Taken at our local Starbucks, using the bulb (long exposure) setting on my Blackbird Fly TLR.
It took me forever to adjust this in Photoshop (I’m still not quite satisfied), and I didn’t realize what was throwing me off until I was almost done. Look closely, and you can just barely see the person who walked in front of the counter during the three-second exposure, then paused at the right side of the frame. (Easier to see at a larger size — look especially at the legs of the left-most chair.)
Lamppost (Sprocket Photography)
Taken at Levis Commons with the blackbird,fly twin lens reflex camera I bought in Japan. The Blackbird takes 35mm film, but has a removable mask specifically to allow sprocket photography.
The double-exposure at the top and bottom of the frame was completely unintentional, but adds to the charm, in my opinion.
Autumn Window
We’ve officially hit the height of Autumn color. Glad I actually managed to catch some of it on film and digitally this year.
