Loaded up with a roll of ancient Fujicolor Superia 100 for the first time in more than ten years. This was the first camera I actually bought rather than got as a hand-me-down. I hauled this heavy thing and 30 rolls of film around South and Southeast Asia in 2005 - well inside the digital era but before digital was good.</p> <p>I’ve discovered a few rolls of Velvia 50 and this is the perfect camera to shoot them on. But I need to first see if I’ve sorted the issue where the pressure plate was leaving tramlines down the film.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-15-i-grabbed-a-pic-of/ Mon, 15 Apr 2024 15:37:42 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-15-i-grabbed-a-pic-of/ <p>I grabbed a pic of Trinket aka Bun aka Bunbun just before taking my dad’s camera back to him. It was my first ride since I recovered from a bout of COVID at the beginning of last week. I discovered there doesn’t seem to be a way to take an “easy” ride in Cape Town thanks to being in the foothills of a mountain. Still needed to change my shirt on the other end.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-14-this-time-last-year-this/ Sun, 14 Apr 2024 11:50:40 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-14-this-time-last-year-this/ <p>This time last year, this boy was still missing - living on geckos and rainwater. It’s so delightful to have him back. We’ve got him airtagged now which will hopefully help us find him if it ever happens again. It would have last time given that he was stuck only 10m from home.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-14-johnthevudios-new-kitten-gets-its/ Sun, 14 Apr 2024 11:05:22 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-14-johnthevudios-new-kitten-gets-its/ <p><a href="https://instagram.com/johnthevudio">@johnthevudio</a>’s new kitten gets its first day out in a very big world.</p> https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-14-johnthevudio-hosted-an-end-of/ Sun, 14 Apr 2024 11:02:28 +0000 https://photoblog-a3l.pages.dev/posts/2024-04-14-johnthevudio-hosted-an-end-of/ <div class="swiper carousel-container"> <div class="swiper-wrapper"> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18044850469680005.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="17911182935842919.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18018874922234429.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18047957959646601.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18008002991381312.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18027434911859394.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="17982305711651633.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18093169726414368.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18022870664315652.jpg" alt=""> </div> <div class="swiper-slide"> <img src="18021241394286379.jpg" alt=""> </div> </div> <div class="swiper-button-next"></div> <div class="swiper-button-prev"></div> <div class="swiper-pagination"></div> </div> <p><a href="https://instagram.com/johnthevudio">@johnthevudio</a> hosted an end of summer braai.

I just picked up an SD card to lightning adapter to take advantage of them all. It should also mean I’ll post here more often and fewer latergrams.</p> <p>I was astonished that her mouseship had no objection at all to her collar. Barely even noticed it.</p>
