    The straight lines in a lot of these photos made me begin to learn to use the lens correction module…the scanning lens has no appreciable distortion, but the Nikon 28-300 that more or less lives on this camera body has some that it noticeable with straight lines.

  3. A few weeks ago I started shifting my #darktable config to the same external SSD that my photos are on, so that I can work on them on both my laptops (macOS and Linux) and main PC depending on where I am.

    Fast forward to last week, when I left the SSD plugged into my main PC overnight with darktable running, and it crashed (the PC, not darktable) and corrupted the active, open darktable configuration files on the SSD. I have a lot of custom metadata set up for film scans as well as multiple workspaces for film, digital, and a slide scanning project - so it was a substantial configuration. The photos themselves are periodically backed up (and I still have the negatives which is what I use darktable for the most).

    I worked with an LLM (this is one of the acceptable use cases for AI, IMO, as opposed to generating images and deepfakes all that that garbage) because I'm not a #bash expert and wanted a framework to work from/customize/learn from. This was the result - I'm posting it here in case anyone wants to use it, or has any ideas to make it better. Feel free to fork/clone if you like. Also open to ideas/suggestions. I tried to make it friendly enough that someone else can pick it up and run with it for their own use case.

    The first script backs up the configuration to a separate location (and keeps 5 rotating backups) and then starts up darktable. The second script allows you to select and restore one of those backups. If you put them in a bin folder in your home directory you can just run them like other terminal commands.

    I know that darktable also has a way to "check out" local copies, so maybe I should throw all these photos on a NAS (with a periodic offsite backup) or something, but this little SSD that I can take downstairs with me to work on my laptop while I watch TV with my wife has overall been a great, speedy solution - and a learning opportunity. Some of this will help me improve other simpler bash scripts I have/use.

  5. Waiting to board the plane to Allentown, to see family just across the Delaware in NJ.

    I was just sitting here being proud of the fact that I only packed two cameras this trip. A #NikonF100 with the magnificent 28-300, and the #NikonFM3A with the VoightlΓ€nder 40mm.

    And 12 rolls of #IlfordHP5 - that should get me through 3 and a half days, right? πŸ€£πŸ€”

  7. Ramses is 14 years old. He is my best friend's dog. I was with him when he was adopted in...2012 I think? He's super fluffy and super photogenic.

  9. Two days ago I visited a new (to me) nature trail at a local park. I packed a few rolls of film, chosen based on how sunny out it was. I didn't know how dark and tree-covered the trail would end up being…so this got pushed waaaaay further than I expected (or I would've brought different film!).

    Overall most of the 2 rolls were…not great. But there were a few unexpected keepers, shots that were much moodier on film than I remember seeing in person, and that I’m actually really enjoying. Here are a few of the keepers.

  11. These two shots were taken in full sunlight during a hike in the Swiss Alps. The saturation and grain are quite intense but I feel like this gives the pictures an interesting vibe.

  13. I am absolutely impressed by my first roll of Harman Phoenix II ! This is a mystical morning shot I took on my way to work.

  15. There are thousands of perfectly exposed, clean, smiling iPhone photos of my grandson, but I still prefer the black and white, dusty, grainy, film versions.
