I sometimes forget that film is expensive.

I love this photo of my son-in-law and his dog during the pandemic, but the view count on Flickr seems a little crazy. www.flickr.com/photos/jb…
I should know this, but I’m looking for a way to share a bunch of event photos with family. I don’t want them in my iCloud library and I don’t want anyone to have to log in or follow me anywhere. They should be able to easily add them to their own photo library. Currently, I’m using SmugMug. Others?
I’ll go see Barbie, but not until they project it on a beach and I can pull up in this.

Me too, Joan! :)

My goal today is to do something interesting in here. Anything.
Today strikes me as a Tangible Things kind of day. I may need to shut down the computer for a while.
I feel like I’ve printed many photos of various sizes with this little Epson (ET-8500) and the ink levels have barely moved. It’s nice not worrying as much about ink cost and just making prints whenever I want to.
Rereading Camera Lucida.
I can’t think of a better record than this right now.

The photos people are able to make with iPhones are amazing. It’s not a camera I want to use, though. daily.baty.net/posts/202…
I worry about unwittingly starting public conversations (aka “arguments”), so I temper my writing/posting. To mitigate this, I’m no longer automatically syndicating from the blog(s) to social media/Micro.blog. daily.baty.net/posts/202…
So every attachment in Obsidian gets dropped together in one big folder? That’s gonna come back and bite, for sure.
Caught a nice moment between my mom and dad today.

Re: Which camera(s) to bring? Option one on the left. Option two on the right. An embarrassment of riches, and a good problem to have, but still, I can’t decide.

I’m going to a family reunion today. Decided last night to only bring my big digital camera. This morning I “decided” to bring two film bodies instead, one with HP5 and one Portra. Now I don’t know. I’ve got two hours to figure it out. I suppose it’ll be “both” but I was hoping to avoid that.
As easy and flexible as digital journaling can be, for me it pales in comparison to physical journals/scrapbooks. The spread shown here covers more than 6 weeks, which shows how inconsistent I am with it. Still, it’s priceless, because over time those gaps seem much smaller.
