Look, I know I’m a dinosaur. I prefer to take photos on film. I don’t even like auto-focus. I think light meters are optional. The year 2000 basically just passed me by photography-wise. And you know, that’s fine.
I’m not boycotting the internet, though. I freakin’ love Flickr. I’ve [...]

I’m tardy to the party with the latest diptychs. This one is from a few weeks ago. I’ll be posting last week’s shortly.
