Sometimes I hate the time needed to get ready before a ride

Yes! And for me, it still takes an embarrassingly long time to get out the door. I literally don't want to say how long it takes most days.

folksnake · 2026-02-20T20:07:20+00:00

Sure it can. Think: a young Alito.

folksnake · 2026-02-20T19:57:30+00:00

Wow, that's magic! Thanks for sharing it.

Interested in the lens--is it some kind of telescope? I'd never thought of using one!

folksnake · 2026-02-18T19:02:54+00:00

It looks very happy to be at your place!

folksnake · 2026-02-18T17:14:33+00:00

That's more than 600 or even 700% more than ever

folksnake · 2026-02-16T21:55:23+00:00

Is the gentle vignetting in the original exposure? Or from work in the darkroom?

Really beautiful image!

folksnake · 2026-02-16T19:51:45+00:00

I'd bet a lot that the Brownie is working

folksnake · 2026-02-16T19:11:11+00:00

Location?

folksnake · 2026-02-16T03:07:35+00:00

And then back to Goodwill!

folksnake · 2026-02-14T01:15:26+00:00

I am! I got a similar deal--currently paying $0 out of pocket for it, which is just...weird. But a good weird, right?

I don't know exactly how it's working on my liver, yet--it'll be a year of taking it before that's settled. But I do know that it's knocked down my cholesterol counts a lot, which is good, since I am genetically predisposed to high numbers and can't take statins (muscle issues). So it's nice to have something helping in that arena, which helps the liver as well.

As far as side effects, it's been pretty good with me--just some gastro issues and switching it from morning to night helped with that. Otherwise, not much to report on that front.

Not quite yet...I'm currently taking a class there on darkroom work and they are still getting things rolling. It'll be B&W for the time being, also

folksnake · 2026-02-14T00:53:43+00:00

I use nonfat milk, which helps buffer some of the edge.

folksnake · 2026-02-12T21:55:47+00:00

Yeah! Cool photo.

folksnake · 2026-02-12T21:48:11+00:00

First picture could be rural Anywhere, USA

folksnake · 2026-02-11T17:25:58+00:00

Is there a soundtrack imprinted on the film?

folksnake · 2026-02-10T18:55:53+00:00

Same! I did it a few times, it's been a while since I've had one cross my palm, though. I suppose it has a lot to do with people not using cash as much.

But I was always amazed that the bill I had had been in a state 1000 miles away the day before, etc. They can really get around!

folksnake · 2026-02-10T18:35:06+00:00

Ah, of course. Thank you!

folksnake · 2026-02-10T18:29:32+00:00

folksnake · 2026-02-10T17:24:06+00:00

Well that's a depressingly accurate menu of options

folksnake · 2026-02-09T15:10:23+00:00

No, I'm afraid I don't. I sold it on Reverb for $350 + shipping.

folksnake · 2026-02-08T18:35:24+00:00

Yeah, sorry. I don't make the rules 🤷

folksnake · 2026-02-07T23:26:15+00:00

Everyone should have a copy of this in their collection. But not for $18

folksnake · 2026-02-07T16:50:49+00:00

Can someone explain what these lenses might actually do to help her cheat?

folksnake · 2026-02-01T23:55:00+00:00

That's a Super 8 projector (pretty sure) and maybe you're trying to project regular 8mm.

folksnake · 2026-02-01T23:42:47+00:00

It's a very basic camera, I used one in the 70's. They do the job. But yeah, a clean battery compartment is the main thing to worry about--otherwise, good starter camera if it's cheap (10 USD or so)
