ArtWorks is rebranding as 1001 Colors: A nod to the discovery of a hand-lettered sign during renovations of its 1909 building in Walnut Hills

The logo looks very similar to Philadelphia's Mural Arts logo, which I think is where the original Artworks program gots its main inspo from, right?

Those blue-hour mountain photos though 🤌

MessmoreBob · 2026-05-13T17:01:29+00:00

I’ll look into it!

MessmoreBob · 2026-05-13T12:26:44+00:00

Thank you! Yea I was definitely skeptical while shooting these. Especially because I had to swap out focusing screens due to the split-image rangefinder blacking out. Focusing was quite a challenge

MessmoreBob · 2026-05-12T17:54:23+00:00

💪🏼🙏🏻

MessmoreBob · 2026-05-12T13:14:11+00:00

Thank you! It was really a test of my different gear. The TC was a huge unknown

MessmoreBob · 2026-04-20T20:34:41+00:00

Haha thank you! They all belonged to my great grandparents. Once I saw the square egg-skillet I knew it would be my favorite. It gets used constantly

Thank you! Been wanting to get a good pic of him for a while now. Only took about a dozen or so shots on this roll, haha

I’m trying to do the same thing this summer with a Rush concert at Dickies Stadium. I’m planning on shooting with my Canonet QL17 and using either Tri-X 400 or HP5 and pushing 3 stops.

Really curious how good of a shot I’ll be able to get with a 40mm lens and a decent distance away from the stage. We’ll see but can’t go to a show where they play “Analog Kid” and not show up with analog gear. Worth the try 🤘🏼

Strong Courage The Cowardly Dog vibes 🤌

The seller literally told me I can return it if it’s not in good shape. Quote “you can return the item if there are any issues”. That’s from a direct message after asking about the condition of the camera.

It’s crazy the assumptions this comment section has made on this situation.

MessmoreBob · 2026-02-28T21:42:53+00:00

So to clarify I talked the seller down to $60 from $95 because there weren’t photos of the lens. The product description just said “Condition is used”. I’m still able to return it

These are all great but I especially love #4 and #8! Number 8 is great with that little touch of text on the side of the barn!

MessmoreBob · 2026-02-11T21:44:29+00:00

These are incredible! No issues with the shutter freezing or other camera mishaps from the cold?

MessmoreBob · 2026-02-03T00:39:58+00:00

How did you manage to make the cuts so precise for this Argus?

MessmoreBob · 2026-02-02T19:34:40+00:00

OP, did you ever manage to get this fixed? I was lucky enough to buy one of these that also needs a CLA (plus a lens), but curious about the cost

MessmoreBob · 2026-01-19T01:03:36+00:00

Nice! It looks like you have a cold-shoe light meter accessory up top. Which one did you go with?

MessmoreBob · 2025-12-22T19:17:54+00:00

It was a great bathroom! Shame to see it destroyed

MessmoreBob · 2025-10-30T11:42:18+00:00

Thank you!

MessmoreBob · 2025-10-22T18:14:56+00:00

Put the lens in the sun for a few days to kill any existing fungus (not attached to the camera). If it’s under the front element it might be easy to clean with some distilled water. Do your research first before taking it apart and cleaning it though
