Well, the first day of fall is quickly approaching. Since I was somewhat MIA from blogging this summer, I never got around to posting the “Summery Summary” as Jon coined it. So before we descend into sweaters and scarves, here’s one last look back on the warmer (scorching) days of 2012.

It’s been a lovely summer. Pure Michigan.
Sometimes I make things while listening to sappy music. Last week, I made strawberry jam. Thought it might make a nice, summery vidblog.
Bonus points if you spot the continuity error.
Another batch of the 35mm photos from my Pentax. Shake off your jackets and enjoy the warmth.

I recently borrowed stole my folks’ old Pentax K1000 35mm camera. I’ve snapped three rolls of film so far this year, two Fuji 400 and one Kodak 200.
I know it’s sort of becoming a cliché, but there really is something wonderful about shooting film. Not knowing exactly what you just shot, having to wait for the development (a whole hour, heaven forbid), seeing the photos first as prints in your hands.
Analog, man. The imperfection is key.
So I thought I’d spend a few posts sharing my exploits. First up: portraits.

My brother Sam’s 31st birthday party was a downright classy affair. Here are some snapshots.
(I should probably note that Sam and I share our excellent posture.)
Happy Birthday!
