Heel | Sailing on the Chesapeake Bay Nikon FE, Vivitar 28-90mm F2.8, Kodak Portra 160 I ran out of film at the exact moment when she turned to port and gave me a gorgeous composition in my viewfinder. It was a tragic moment. I also made the split-second decision when I snapped this to break the rules of photography and make the horizon crooked for the sake of leveling the yacht. But I’m not sure they’re heeling enough to make it radical enough to work. If only the wind were a little stronger that day…

Kiln Nikon FE, Kodak Portra 160 This old, decrepit kiln was one of the several cool pieces of local history at the park where Em and I went exploring. I’d have shot this on Tri-X, but I still had most of a roll of Portra 160 to get through. I can’t lie, I do like me some color…

Summer Skin | My Daughter Nikon FE, 50mm F1.8, Kodak Portra 160 This girl moves so fast; this shot is truly a miracle. As a matter of fact, just about any manually focused shot I get of her is a miracle. She gave me lots of nice full-second-long poses this day, so I had a few miracles back-to-back.

Artist and Sandwich | Lunch, before going out to shoot some Tri-X. Nikon FE, 50mm F1.8, Kodak Portra 160 Em is the sort of person who, stately and classy as she may naturally be, would never let an air of superiority presume upon her countenance. Hence, here we are, just eatin’ a sammich. She walked in front of that wall, and the light was just perfect, so I scrambled to get out the camera and focus before the moment disappeared.

Contour | Somewhere near Towson, MD Nikon FE, Vivitar 28-90mm F2.8, Kodak Portra 160; slight burn to sky to reveal blue in Photoshop Elements Went to a park to shoot some film with my sister. It used to be a farm, and when the family that owned it was getting ready to sell, the citizens of the area worked to keep it from being developed. This lovely park is the result of their efforts.
