The horror of it all.

Straight to dvd movies are just so horrible...they should be illegal. Just wasted 90minutes of my life, when all I wanted to see happened to be 5 minutes of alternate endings and a little piece in the credits.

Funny how a day can pull a 180...

After the fun that was reading the survey results of engineers, my day went to hell. Put the survey report together and found out it was in the wrong format. I switched it into another acceptable format but it's still bugging me 5 hours after the fact. I take stuff like that pretty hard. Oh well... hopefully everything will work itself out.

Spent a little bit of time with the lady in Bryant Park before capping our night off at Applebees, helped to calm me down a bit and cheer me up.

The song "Cheer" by The Descendents comes to mind after the events of today, check it out, it's good.

Umm I took more photos, film is taking over my life:

And I'll get to Scotland before ye...

And having nothing to do with a trip to Coney Island:

Surprise!!!

After much delay!

My birthday weekend was awesome. Earlier in the week, a friend took me to the home run derby, that was pretty awesome. I spent Friday night at Barcelona with some friends from Barnes & Noble for early birthday drinks, after seeing The Dark Knight!

What an amazing movie, I enjoyed the watchmen trailer, it kind of reminded me of another action packed adventure, "Sneak the Dagley into the Movies" that's a good one right there.

As for Saturday, I wandered the streets and took pictures before heading again to Barcelona where I was joined by a slew of friends. I also took the opportunity to test out my ilford 3200 film, it only works in low light and the results are grainy as hell but still pretty cool.

On Sunday, went shooting around Coney Island (Got to bring all my lenses thanks to Jen buying me an awesome camera bag!) and got a few cool shots.

I joined tumblr. I'm at eladam.tumblr.com...

I suck at blogging...

Here are some of the shots from my ilford test roll:

Off to a good start..

Only had a dollar on me this morning but my donut guy still gave me a large iced coffee and two donuts, he insisted that I needed to have breakfast. Hopefully this is going to carry on into the trend for the day.

I still need to post about last weekend, I'm being lazy.

I'll go into detail later but for now, I'll leave you with this picture by my friend Renato from our Coney Island trip:

Film, you make positives out of negatives...

Just processed a roll of black & white film and am pleased with the results. Birthday week has been amazing so far, seen wild dolphins out in Wild Wood while out there for the weekend, and went to the Home Run Derby last night. Poker Wednesday, Dark Knight Friday, still don't know what to do for my birthday.


For lack of anything better to post, here are some pics from my latest roll:

These are a few from my Wild Wood Trip:

Best sunday...ever?

Quite possibly.

Went to go see a Brooklyn Cyclones game with awesome friends, ate two foot long hotdogs, and the holy grail of Coney Island, seagull chicken...

Highlights of the day include:

  • Erica putting the fear of god into a woman, a child, and a small ice cream...all over a soft baseball.
  • Jessica catching one of the above mentioned soft baseballs with the aid of a foam finger.
  • A player for the visiting team named Juan Valdes, they played the coffee commercial whenever he went to bat.
  • Jessica getting kicked off one of those 75¢ horse rides for being too big.
  • Jessica's domination of the Q line.

I took a good amount of pictures of the ballgame with my Nikon Fe2, but being that it's a film slr, I can only hope that some of them came out.

That's it for my first post on this thing, hopefully it will alleviate boredom from time to time.
