This may be my favorite of the bunch. Caught the end of a reel - they used to take a shot of the scoreboard at the end of every quarter to keep track of the time and score.

16mm Experiments
I’ve never really utilized this Tumblr photoset tool, so let’s give it a shot. Though in all honesty I’ll probably post half these pictures by themselves anyway.
I dug an old Elmo CL-16 16mm projector out of my parents’ attic, cleaned it up, and played around with it a bit. All I have for films at the moment are my father’s old high school games from the late seventies, but they’re pretty cool.
October Snow (via Peter Martin Photo)
It’s currently vacillating between snow and rain, which is bad enough…but this is the second time this week that it’s snowed…in freaking October.
Black hole sun. iPhone.

I’ve been doing some experimenting with a softening process based on composition (mixing very different light levels in the frame), hardware (lens: shallow depth of field), and software (decreasing clarity, or localized contrast, in lightroom). Working on the RAW files lets me turn out a much better end result than Photoshopping a jpg (which just looks like crappy blur anyhow). I like the ethereal, creamy quality the unfocused bit takes on. Feels like a dream.

Good example of the benefits of shooting digital, of shooting RAW format, and of Lightroom’s post-production workflow. RAW lets me adjust white balance after the fact, push the exposure by about a stop, and work a photo until it approaches what I’m looking for.
