Farts: Update

No one reads this blog so, at least I can write to myself. I've been busy doing nothing, expcept working and spending all my money on stupid camera shit, beer and mortgage payments. I have fell into the film photography trap and its awful, now theres 3x the amount of shit to potentially buy. I shoot in 35mm, 6x6 (120) and 4x5 I have many film cameras some work, some don't...  I mostly shoot 35mm with a minolta SRT202, cause' I have a decent lens setup for it. Medium format is an old Zeiss Ikon nettar with a leaf shutter, zone focus and twist knob type film advance. For large format I have two Graflexs, one is a Crown graphic with the standard lens the 147mm I think, the other is a speed graphic with a 50mm equivalent and a 20mm or wide angle and I made a  portrait type lens with a old russian large format lens attached to some black pvc pipe. Have been spending most photography time on lightroom or developing negatives. I've made some darkroom prints with some of the black and white stuff, its not anything to write home about though...
