@Denman-John yes, please!

Second and final visit to the Fragile Beauty exhibition at the V&A before it closes on 5 Jan - definitely worth a look if you’re within range. This time was about focusing on the photos that stood out to me rather than taking in the whole thing. In order of appearance, these are my top 5.
Bruce Davidson UNTITLED [YOUTH WITH COKE MACHINE], BROOKLYN GANG, 1959
Robert Mappelthorpe SELF PORTRAIT
Hank Willis Thomas PRICELESS #1
Sam Taylor-Johnson CRYING MEN (Michael Gambon)
Thomas Struth X-RAY TELESCOPE, CAST, CERN, FERNEY-VOLTAIRE

After nearly a decade traveling everywhere with my trusty m240 and m246, I decided I really wanted to simplify and streamline. While I will always deeply miss the m246, I thought this was the best compromise. Already loving the ux and how it is ostensibly much more modern in capability and software but that it feels even simpler in actual use. Good job with "Das Wesentliche" design ethic imo.

thanks guys!
@pechelman I haven’t tried but now that you’re asking…

Finally got some recent-ish rolls back and scanned. This weekend the photo group I’m apart of did a field trip via Amtrak to Durham, NC for the day. Stoked to get the roll back from that. But, for now, here’s some fall goodness including a day trip down to north GA to see my best friend compete in a power lifting event. Color photos shot in the Leica M5 with Gold 200, and the b/w was on my Nikon point and shoot with Rollei RPX 400

@seawolf thank you! One of my goals for the last couple of years has been anytime I’m going to visit or see them that I have at least my point and shoot. I’ve had too many digital photos go the way of dead hard drives over the last 20 years of our trips and antics, that having negatives seems like the only appropriate to ensure I have our memories preserved.
