So after about a month of no posts, I have almost finished a roll of film. Things have been going slow, but at least I will have some new photographs soon.

I plan to start developing my own black and white film some time this year, as well as read more books on the Renaissance. Currently, there are about 35-40 books on that list.

I was originally going to post a photo I took of the tree in Rockefeller Center a few days ago, but sadly my local lab wont have the roll developed until Sunday.

Here is a photo of my grandfather, who is celebrating his fifty-sixth wedding anniversary today. I wish I could have gotten my grandmother to pose, but she doesn't like getting her photo taken.

I hope everyone has a Happy Christmas!

As I was walking up the stairs to exit the Bryant Park subway station, I noticed that a lady near the top of the stairs dropped her cell phone. It fell tumbling down to the platform. I decided to go back down and try and get it for her. After I collected all of the loose pieces which scattered around, I tried to hurry my way back up to hand the lady her phone.

I quickly ran up the stairs, but the lady was nowhere to be found. I then began to think whether I should hold on to the phone that was shattered in pieces, not even knowing if it still worked, or to just throw it out.

Sticking the pieces in my pocket, I made my way to work where I tried to assemble the phone. Somehow, even after a fall of about 10 feet, the phone turned on. Frantically trying to figure out how to work it, I began searching in the contacts to see if I could find a home number to call.

As I started to do that, the phone rang and it ended up being the lady's husband. I told him about the whole situation and said I would meet with him or his wife to hand it over.

A short while later, the lady called and asks where to meet. We meet at 36th and 5th.

I am finally getting around to scanning my negatives into my computer. Here is the first one that I've worked on.

It was taken using my Voigtlander R2A with Kentmere 400 film.

I really like the grain on this film and for only $2.50 per roll, I think I will use it more often. I also have a roll of Kodak Tri-X that I will be scanning soon.

Do you use libraries? I still do. Every month or so I tend to go and borrow a few books to keep me busy on my subway and bus rides.

Over the past week or so, I have been using my old Minolta XE-7 film slr, which has been passed down to me from my grandfather. I'm still finishing up my first roll of film, but when I do, I will try to get a few scans from the negatives up on the blog.

Shooting in film is something I haven't done since I was a little child and I must say, I was missing out for quite a while. I will definitely be using film more often.
