Something about American fire engines makes me think I'm in a Thunderbirds epidode. I'm 36 - not really into cars or anything like that, but Fire Engines here make me feel like I'm 7.
Especially the ladder trucks.

After I voted today, at the Consulate in Century City, I snapped this off, as it was parked out the front.

Squee.

Also for the Nakatomo building in the back.

 

And just for shits and giggles:

Downtown LA.
Crossing the street, this Chihuahua was leading the way, so I snapped his photo. He did NOT like the spinner.

Developed in the kitchen, dried in the bathroom, scanned under the desk.

Wed, 21 Jul 2010 17:24:00 -0700 Two pics from 1st Roll of home-cooked C41 120film... http://andrewgunsberg.com/two-pics-from-1st-roll-of-home-cooked-c41-120 http://andrewgunsberg.com/two-pics-from-1st-roll-of-home-cooked-c41-120
Shot a roll of 120 in the Hasselblad in an effort to get at least some consistency from my results after yesterday's plastic-lensed experiment. 
The frikkin' fiddly film got jammed about six times trying to load it on to the spool, which caused some gnarly kinks/scratches in the film. 
I shot and bracketed a few, but of course didn't take any notes as to what bloody settings I used, which is a rookie error (no EXIF data on film!) so I think the ones a little under what my light meter liked were better.
And yes, oh yes - after shooting a few with natural light, I hooked up the Pocket Wizard to the Hassy and Shot a few with the 580EX and a small softbox to the left. 
I then busted out the chemicals and developed the film in my kitchen..

Here we go folks, might be warming up for the next 365 I think... 
It might be mostly film. 
What do you think?
They're bigr over at flickr
