Roll-063 (2025) Rolleiflex 2.8D
This roll of expired Tri-X was languishing in the camera, so I forced myself to finish it with the usual self-portraits and dog photos.
Is this a photography blog or not?
This site is, what, the 75th time I've started a blog dedicated to my photography hobby? So what's it going to be? Am I going to post photos and write about photography, or am I going to keep firing up Ghost blogs as nothing but aspirational
