A few summers ago, after a trip out West to Portland, Oregon, I was inspired to take up film photography. As a casual hobby. I knew next to nothing. I acquired a Pentax k1000 and began experimenting a bit with fresh and expired film.  I bought the camera off Craigslist from a man who'd purchased it in the 1970's and had lost the manual along the way.  Even though it came without a manual, the camera's in great condition and I've been enjoying using it during my humble foray into film.

When I initially started having the photos developed, I requested print copies only. So, I have a stash of images from the past year that have yet to make their way into digital format.  Hopefully, one day they will.

I'm pretty much winging it. Awhile back I created Flickr page awhile back, and I've only just recently begun to add photos here and there.  I haven't done much in the way of connecting with others on the site. This year, I have committed to doing a 365 project. Take 1 film photo a day. Post onto Instagram. I keep my account private, I'm not really looking for anything beyond watching this year unfold not only in front of me, but retrospectively through film.

A few photos from January, this year.
