Photography Yashica-D

Old leaves and new tulips

I shot a roll of Portra 400 down in the park with the Yashica-D last Tuesday. I saved the last frame for when I got home.

I had forgotten how much fussier color film is than black and white when it comes to exposure. These two got it about right.

I am a photographer, walker, and sometime paddler, a theologically-educated geek living in Rochester, NY. Once upon a time I was an Army helicopter jockey in Alaska.

I started with film, switched to digital, then went back to classic film cameras.

With major back surgery in August 2019 and bunion repair in January 2020 now behind me, I am gearing up to start Appalachian Trail NOBO in June, 2021 to celebrate my seventy-first birthday. Blogging for The Trek.
