Building and Publishing an iOS App with your iPad for real

Building and publishing an app for the iOS App Store all from an iPad Pro is possible!

A Study in Turquoise: Comparing Lomo Turquoise Film to Digital Emulation

There are lots of things that make film fun, but the one that I have been experimenting with lately are ones that flip the script on colors. These color swapping films, exclusively from Lomography, change the color sensitivity of the layers so that for example blue becomes red and red becomes blue which is the… Continue reading A Study in Turquoise: Comparing Lomo Turquoise Film to Digital Emulation

Open Sauce Maker Portraits: A Photography Self Project

One of the areas of photography that I want to improve on is portraiture. Being able to capture someone’s likeness, their personality, their soul, is such a powerful tool. And in so many situations I consistently fail to achieve the look I was going for in my head.

Making a USB-C Rechargeable 2CR5 Battery

So these batteries have not received any of the modern benefits of the digital era. You can still buy them but they are quite expensive at ~$10 a piece!… Continue reading Making a USB-C Rechargeable 2CR5 Battery

Analog Experience: Shooting Film With The Leica M4

Shooting film has always interested me. I started out using my mom’s Pentax ME Super as well as a Leica iiic that I had picked up off of eBay for $250 with a 50mm collapsible Elmar lens. Coincidentally still my only true Leica lens. But I always wanted a film Leica M camera but as… Continue reading Analog Experience: Shooting Film With The Leica M4
