Caught @houseguestband.bsky.social at Victoria Pride last weekend, I was trying out a different setup than I've used for shows lately and I really love the results from the primes + soft-contrast filter. Pentax K-5 SMC-Pentax F 50 f/1.7 SMC-Pentax M 200 f/4 Tiffen Sof-Con 2

Bluesky doesn't seem to want to upload the big posts I made earlier, so here's a long exposure of @houseguestband.bsky.social at Vic Pride until I can get a real post out. Pentax K-5 SMC-Pentax F 50 f/1.7 1/2 second, handheld.
Pictured: Me with the camera looming over the Casse-Tete Ensemble, 2026.
Got to be part of / photograph an experimental music exhibition and then watch one of my favorite local bands doing a free show at Pride this weekend. This is some of the most excited I've been to get into edits in a while. I'm so lucky to have the community and friends to do this kind of thing!
Got a new wide-angle converter, not sure the ratio but it's this wide on a 28mm lens + crop sensor and these chickens seemed to like it. Pentax K-5 SMC-Pentax F 28-80 f/3.5 "Micador Super Wide Angle"
It’s gonna sound like I’m kidding and I am not kidding, and this isn’t everyone’s solution, but my posting philosophy will always be “you’re essentially getting this for free. Some of it is going to be bad. I no longer give a shit” and that’s calmed lot of voices like that in me
do other pro artists have this thing when like, you suddenly cannot doodle and post stuff for fun anymore bc you think it is 'not up to par' and you get really in your own head about it? I used to doodle a lot, memes, reacts, blorbo stuff; but lately I am like 'wow-
first round of pictures already for #shittycamerachallenge it’s a lot of #clouds mavica did okay, one disk started giving the format error again but switching it out started working with others. probably switched through 8 floppy disks on these flights
I had one shot at this. The bull was getting closer, and the camera struggled to find focus through the prism. I wasn't hanging around for a second attempt. #prism #photography
I went so off-brand in my first answer, rethinking on my way home I came up with: 1987 Jetta GTX 16V (Sedan) 1987 Jetta GTX 16V (Coupe) 1987 Ford F-150 (300ci I6)
inspired by a podcast bit You must build a garage of three cars They must all be the same year You must have a regular daily, a sports car, and an off-road car. What do you pick?
Quoteposting because replies are turned off, but all Canadian carspotting people should take a trip to the Fraser Valley at least once so they can see people still dailying 35 year old Nissans.
I think they all rusted away in Canada by 1994 😂
There's a Skyline trying to crawl out the back, and a Corolla trying to climb out the top. I do like some of the styling cues, but the execution is always going to be bad in crossover proportions.

why are people arguing about bluesky this morning? it’s a rainy day. you could be out there getting drenched and falling ill
Oh hey, it's me! Hella 700FF with clear lexan covers to match the clear lexan rock covers on the headlights.
QOTD: Post a photo of a car with driving lights.
My platform for prime minister is that we should cap cars at something like maximum 1500kg, maximum 100hp/ton, and everything has to have friendly looking headlights, and then LRT and Bike Lanes everywhere.
This honestly probably should be the max amount of car we can have without a special license. Little dorkus vehicles that do like 55mph max out the box and trains and e bikes.
I'd love to see a schoolbus yellow 71 labeled as an Eleanor tribute, but all we get is silver paint and goofy bodykits
Disagree. There are many good movie car tribu- Eleanor Mustang: hey guys NOT YOU

Current setup on the 1987 1.6TD; got invited to a classic watercooled VW show last weekend and had to scramble to get it clean and running properly but it was worth it for the comments on the new Centras. #Weirdcarbs #Pentax #mk2vw
A good car event doesn’t just reaffirm that the culture respects certain approaches. It makes people ask real questions about why they like the things they do and whether it is possible or worthwhile to think about those things differently.
Like, why the fuck would I wash & detail my car, that I spent years building, to display in your show that you won’t even pay someone to make a flyer for?
It’s wild how prevalent this is in the car community I’ve skipped *every* local show this year, because of shitty Ai flyers & merch
Useful thing to use here
Three times in the theater, at least yearly since then. Could have put any Mad Max, but Nux's journey is really important + MMFR doesn't have Mel Gibson.
Film you've watched more than six times with gif. hard mode: no star wars, star trek, lotr, dc, marvel, disney, pixar, dreamworks, spielberg, cameron, wachowskis, or ghibli
when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters
I'm solidly on team "if a four-door SUV is a coupe I will face God and walk backwards into hell" on this one tbh
Following a guy in an A-class or GLA or something weaving like he was drunk on Saturday night, and then I realized he had a TV show playing on the gigantic screen above the center stack.
unironically screens you can see from the drivers seat should be illegal. they are a hazard on the level of drunk driving
I picked up the "Special Edition" DVD from the used video store after that post, rewatching it tonight!
Feeling like it might be time for a rewatch of this, it's such a viscerally grimy film + has a young Willem Dafoe being an absolute demon of a criminal artist. Always a fantastic choice!
