Tiny contact #cyanotype proof print from two Tri-X XA2 negatives.

I don’t need Spotify to tell me my listening age, I already know what it is! 🙃

Forget the cars, concerts, etc.
I’ll introduce myself with my garden decorations.

My husband is looking for a decaf Lapsang Souchong. Does such a thing even exist?
(Preferably from a US shop.)

@zdp189.bsky.social I just saw a news report about a big apartment fire in HK. Is that anywhere near you?

Welcome to November's BSKY #photochat! Let's get the conversation going. Remember to put the hashtag in your response.

Q1: Excluding everyday snapshots / cell phone photos do you primarily plan your photoshoots in advance or capture moments spontaneously? Or both?

I attempted this pattern 3 times before finishing it. The measurements are all correct, but I’m scared to try it on. 🤣

Pilot had a massive ad spread in a jp newspaper with "make AI jealous" and "write what AI can't touch" written on it

Anyway I think everyone should own a Pilot kakuno pen
