ExposedDC threw their annual photography show at The Long View Gallery. I had a photo hanging during last year's show but I didn't make the cut this year. There were plenty of impressive photos on hand though and it was great to see the work of friends hanging.

I shot some color film; Kodak UltraMax and FujiFilm Superia Max. I love color negative film of pretty much any make or ilk. I will probably be shooting more of it as the summer colors start to come out.

Blogger.com seems to be compressing some of my B&W scans in a weird way, giving them a brownish tint and adding quite a bit of noise over the grain. If I wasn't computer ignorant I would try to figure out why, but oh well. Close enough.
