Sorry folks, I’ve decided to not continue Project365. My goal with Project365 was to help my photography skills, by forcing myself to take pictures every day. With my sometimes 13 hour workdays and my new love of film this project has ended up hindering my progress, not helping it. While I respect the folks who can do this I am just not one of them.

My flickr will keep getting constant loads of pictures as I take at least a roll of film every weekend and take a camera (or four) to every event I go to. That’s available here – or my normal blog is at http://jsleeper.org.

“Lake Whitehurst Sunset”

You didn’t think I could go the whole year without a cheesy sunset did you? Same roll as yesterday’s photo.

One of my bestest friends – we met each other at the bus stop in second grade over twenty years ago.

Test roll of Fuji Superia ISO 100 that expired in 2002 – not bad!

Over 1/3 of my recent roll on the Holga was pointing up at something with the sky in the background… Why is that?

Bent.

Holga 120N, Kodak 400VC film

Apparently my coworker broke his belt today. He hung the belt over his monitor and put this post-it on it. I thought it was funny and worth a snapshot.

There are times when nothing can beat an omelet from Denny’s after a 13 hour workday.

Polaroid Spectra expired film.

“Death of Polaroid?”

Numerous news sources have reported that Polaroid will officially stop producing film next year. One source is missing – Polaroid. I’ll believe it when I see it from them.

The most important film to me, the 669-style peel-apart – is already made by Fujifilm so Polaroid not making it any longer will not effect me as much.

“Blown Out”

Gavin blew out the candles before anybody could react!

“Happy Birthday Gavin!”

Gavin turned two today. For some reason whenever I am near him with a camera I cannot resist taking a picture or twelve. He is such a funny kid, and learning so quick! This is my cousin’s son.
