something tells me the ever increasing police use of live facial recognition alongside the government making moves to restrict mask-wearing isn't coincidental
of course it’s worse, as you said, since under the digital surveillance model the enforcer, and the rules, can change as time moves forward, so now the pressure is not relieved with time, since old ‘infractions’ can be found and punished as if you committed them today
my initial reaction is to say that panopticon as metaphor is dead, since you are observed at all times, and the only question is one of “how certain the punishment and how severe?”.

i actually panopticon as a metaphor is still useful since the psychological effect is the similar
it is such a confluence of tech, the broad social movements we saw (anti-mask movements as cover), and fascism all working towards the will of the powerful.

i am also struck with how little societies care for consent in this way. when did we offer our likenesses up to ‘tech’, to be used against us?

#filmphotography folks, can I get a little input? Light leaks in the Yashica Mat 124G or did I do something to expose the film while loading it? This pattern appears at the edges of most frames on the roll. this is only the fourth roll I’ve run through this camera. Never seen this before.
i hope that good light and inspiration find you! (or if you can generate them, so much the better). i always end up looking at still life in an attempt to inspire myself. instead Weston’s shells haunt me.
fooling around on my porch this morning with the spotmatic and the new Kodak 200 speed film. long exposures and light trails. 29/36 completed for this roll.

"It is very very difficult for people who are not transgender women to understand just how much people hate transgender women; it slides off the mind like the historical reality of marital rape or the evils of factory farming."

Ok, if those of you who scan negatives, i have a question for ya.
All I have done to the following image is darken it a little. If you look at the leaves, something is off. Every negative I have, the leaves show up the same way.
Any thoughts on why they look like that?
Generating Plant/Above the Falls - Ektar 100 - Pentax MX - SMC Pentax-M 50mm f1.7

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
thanks! the good thing about color negative is you can always expose for the shadows and i never feel worried about the highlights. scanning on the other hand…

📷 Voightlander Vito B
🎞️ Kodak Gold
Bristol College Green. Annoying on this camera, rewind a frame or shoot the whole roll twice. Didn't do the others right and they came out as single exposures, I have too many photos of hands and textures now 🫠

"I'm Helping" - Ektar 100 - Pentax MX - Vivitar 28mm f2.8

i love the contrast between the little CMP culvert and the enormity of the falls. the best version of this has the culvert flowing too, free idea for someone else!
