  I borrowed my friend's Canonet QL17. Put a roll of Efke 25 through it, mainly because I had only one roll of it, have never used it before and was apprehensive about putting that slow of a film in my Leica. The camera had no battery, but everything else seemed in working order and the roll turned out ok.

  

  

  

  

  Surprised this one was in focus.

  

  Burned the rest of the roll at home.

  

  Two spiders.

  

  Crazy flare.

  

  Oh hey, clouds.

  

  Now Tri-x. Project for an art class, had to create an album cover. Also featured is the canonet and an article about Sonic Youth with Thurston making a face (including hands with eyes) quite similar to that of the pale man from Pan's Labyrinth.

  

  

  For the same art class we had to create a sign and put it up somewhere on campus.

  

  

  

  We got puppies. (more to come later)

  

  But first, I went to the griffith observatory because I hadn't been since it reopened.

  

  

  

  Not very interesting, unfortunately:

  

  

  I thought I missed him. A second later he was off the floor.

  

  Zeiss telescope!

  

  

  Ok, more puppies.

  

  He hops when he runs.

  

  

  They both enjoy laying down at our feet.

  

  Oh, I also got a gecko. Mom's co-worker couldn't take care of it anymore and I said I would. He's cool.

  

  

  Hello, there!

  

  

  

  

  

  Printed this one on fiber, but not entirely happy with the print.

  

  

  My messy desk (featuring sleeping gecko).

  

  I watched Grizzly Man. After seeing Encounters at the End of the World I wanted to see more by Mr. Herzog and this one seemed like a good choice. Turns out it was, a very well done documentary on a fascinating person.

  

  Joys of living in southern california?

  

  My grandmother in the house she raised her children in. I underexposed it because I'm stupid.

  

  Must be something to revisit the house you grew up in, or raised your children in..

  

  

  

  Back home.
