Minot was blanketed in a nasty cloud of dust a little while ago and because I do not have strong self-preservation instincts I decided it was a great day to finish up a roll of in my Maxxum XTSI. Visit Minot The City of Minot

If I can’t be good at photography, I’m at least going to take pictures of the weirdest s**t I can find. This promise I make to you.

Winter in Minnesota | Shot on the Minolta Maxxum 9xi on Kodak Colorplus 200

Another turkey photo I really like despite some technical flaws. I did not know turkeys really flew—like, I’d seen them jump and glide s distances or, in the immortal words of one Sheriff Woody Pride (IYKYK) “falling with style,” but these were not small trees… or small turkeys. At least one of them had the good sense to stay down on the ground with the rest of us mortals.
This was shot on film using my Minolta Maxxum 9xi and 70-210 f4 “beer can” lens using Kodak Colorplus 200.

I brought a film camera ( EOS 55 if you’re nerdy) to where my musical alter ego had a full band show. This was my first experience with push processing and I’m kinda into it. This is pushed to 1600. I don’t know if these count as since there isn’t technically a concert happening in any of these shots, but that’s what I’m going to call them anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
