The Beginning

In an attempt to share more photos outside of social media, I've started this newsletter/blog. While my old dudebarn blog will continue to live on. This seemed like a good way to start fresh and share more current work and in a way where some photos will show up in your inbox from time to time (hopefully monthly). I hope to talk a little more about the camera I used and the film stock or editing. A way to get a little more nerdy about the photos. So here's a couple photos to start with the sharing. These were made on my Minolta CLE with Tri-X 400 on a trip to O'ahu, Hawai'i. I think this camera is having issues with its light meter. So I got some great shots and many more unusable shots. I hope you enjoy.
