(Glitchy) Canon S200 Elph – Sample Photos
This lovely vintage Canon S200 Elph digicam was thrifted out in New Mexico! Seeing as how these things are snatched up so quick by savvy resellers I’m glad we visited the store at the right time. This ancient 2 Megapixel imager came with a 256MB (yes Megabytes!) CF card that still had some photos from […]

Canon SX100 IS Digicam | Shot with a Nikon D4, edited with my “anime preset” 😉 I bought this camera a few years back for something like $15? I forget exactly, just like how I forgot to do a dedicated post on it. I like this camera a lot. It’s small, takes 2 AA batteries […]

Big thanks to Vivian and Sean for coming over to hang out! Showing some of the images we got on the adventure in reverse, because at the end of the day we were blessed with a pretty great sunset at the new Suwanee Park. It took a late evening rain storm, but that’s usually how […]
Continue readingCanon R8 Sample Photos + Portraits + Mini Review
I added a Canon EOS R8 for some work situations because it’s the only affordable mirrorless camera with a usable silent shutter. Yeah, that’s pretty much it. After all these years I still don’t have a Nikon FF mirrorless because the older Nikon DSLRs still produce top notch images, and their files work perfectly in […]

It was super cold and raining in the morning, and that threw off the flow of the events for Sunday, but it still turned out nice and festive at the end! Here’s a photo story from my perspective. Wanted to shoot film and other things, but that weather was a bummer. Great performances and display […]

Wat Buddha Bucha Thai New Year Songkran April 7, 2024 | Decatur, GA The L/T/C New Year “season” here in Georgia normally begins at the Thai temple and runs all the way to Memorial Day(!) when folks everywhere congregate up in TN. Today had brisk cool weather and a large turnout for the alms giving […]
Continue readingPeppermint Flowering Peach Tree Might be my Favorite
The peppermint flowering peach tree might be the most visually striking in my opinion. It’s crazy to see the blossoms coming right out of a sapling not even two feet high. The color palette matches my good old foldable bike too. We’ll see if the film photos I also shot on my Olympus Stylus turn […]

Thanks to Chalita and her dad for randomly stopping by the other day! Here are some photos from a somewhat spontaneous mini adventure. The rainbow was definitely unplanned, but for Georgia in the summer, it always has to shower unexpectedly somewhere. Stepped out of the house with 3 cameras, and 3 different lenses. Nikon D610 […]
