Fade to Autumn
Summer Is Always Slipping Away
Even when you’re right there, right in the middle of it, summer is always slipping away.

Canon Canonet QL17 G-III – Kodak Ektar 100
Magic
Some summer time plant life, taken with the Pentax K1000 and a lovely roll of Kodak Portra.
Magic.
Kodak Ektar 100
Had my first roll of Kodak Ektar 100 printed, and boy, talk about some touchy film.
Or I should say, touchy camera (my Canonet) and film combo. Lots of underexposures, crushed blacks, and double exposures (like the one above) in the roll.
It’s a bummer when the photos you’re looking forward to seeing come out botched. But that’s the magic of film, right?
Austin
Had a chance to visit Austin, Texas, last week for a higher ed conference. Lovely city, and very weird. Neat that both the state capitol and major university are in the same town.
And all that barbecue? Man.
More to come.
