NOAA Cuts Leave Wind Chimes As Sole Predictor Of Approaching Hurricanes

Yes! I’m interested too.

I shot this last year at Blue Lakes in Colorado and only yesterday developed it.

I'm trying to de-Adobe my workflow, so this is a manual conversion of my film scan (without using Negative Lab Pro). Editing is always my weakest area.

The FAQ and petition on their site makes it clear: the goal isn’t an open discussion but removing most medians. The petition isn’t about gathering community input—it’s about hitting 30k signatures to push for removal. A true community effort would include perspectives for and against.

The community outreach slide deck makes some interesting claims. Slide 8 says medians make flooding worse, but roads with poor drainage flood regardless. The real issue might be stormwater management, not the medians.

It’s no wonder survey respondents are leaning negative. This survey steers respondents toward negative opinions. The questions assume negative impacts, lack neutral framing, and don’t offer balanced perspectives. A fair survey would weigh pros and cons equally.

Another Bad Day for Aviation. And how it sounds when often-derided public servants cope with terrible events.

A lovely post from @jfallows.bsky.social walking us through the audio of air-traffic controllers working in Philly tonight, in a salute to their daily diligence and competence

Somewhat grainy picture of a warehouse's bathroom. It appears to be stuck in time with an old water fountain, wood paneled walls, and walls with peeling wallpaper. The only light is from the Mavica's flash, lending the picture a spooky quality.

I shot this at an artists' market last weekend. It's a spooky looking room, and the way the #Mavica pictures look adds to that, but it felt oddly nostalgic.

We have them! I’m pretty sure I saw some too. Super fast little birds though! I’ll try next time.

Thanks! Yep, it's a cardinal. There were so many of them hanging out in the brush, but it was pretty tricky to get a picture of one with the Mavica.

I didn’t get any pictures I’m especially happy with but shooting the #mavica in the forest today was a lot of fun! It’s hard to find color out there during this time of year.

It’s a quiet, overcast day on the #LoneStarHikingTrail. I haven’t seen another human, but there is a countless number of cardinals and other birds flying around. They’re little flashes of color in an otherwise dreary, brown forest.

Absolutely!

I picked up a few #mavica cameras on eBay! The prices really came down from the peak #digicam craze last year. Should be fun for the #shittycamerachallenge. Looking forward to taking one on a hike tomorrow!

They really don’t like low light, but I’m getting some fun colors in full sunlight.

This is awesome! I’ve never heard of trichrome photography before.

What about using a black and white film simulation on a digital camera without saving a corresponding raw?

I took this picture when I was in Boston last year for the marathon. It’s one of the few shots on my Berlin Kino roll that turned out. I just love the depth in the image.

I haven’t been too terribly inspired lately to shoot film but I need to just get out there!

What a cool way to find out that Martha Wells lives right here in BCS!

I hadn’t noticed that before! That is pretty neat. Thanks!

I used a 3d printed adapter to hold the film cartridge. Works great!

I love the textures and shadows you can get with pictures like this. I've only ever tried shots like this with B&W, but the color looks awesome!

Have you ever gotten your RB67 serviced? Mine's got some kind of focus calibration issue and I'm not sure what to do with it.

I love how the horizon disappears. What a wonderful shot.
