Rich folks, share your secrets.

The longest fucking week is over. I'm officially full-time now at novacolor (a photolab of sorts, though we don't even process film anymore...mostly just scanning, photo printing, sign-making, and mounting). A very necessary raise of an indeterminate amount is coming, as well as health insurance. Yay, I guess, though I'm pretty sure I'll still be

taxes suck!

photoin rules. today some dude took my portrait with my moped. He was using this old school camera that was like a single cartridge polaroid and the camera had that dark cloth for him to stand under while looking through the viewfinder.

that was probably a 4x5. i've never owned one, but have used them many-a-time. i like how most people consider them old timey...i guess because most photographers that are out and about use more compact options people aren't used to seeing them, but they're still common in studios and for architectural stuff.

Yes, that's what it was. He told me the film and cameras aren't made anymore, maybe he was confused?

i just finished my taxes

Ummmmm....maybe that specific camera? Pretty sure that 4x5 film is still made, but I honestly haven't bought any in quite a while....oh, although...was he just using polaroid or was he testing with polaroids and then shooting a piece of negative film? The polaroid might not be around anymore. Son of a bitch, I hate change.
