In the end, I was reasonably pleased; but you be the judge.

Expired Film Test
On 10/25/25, I took a drive up to Illinois Beach State Park in Zion, IL in order to shoot some landscape photos using a fairly new to me Leica CL film camera and Leica 50mm F2 Summicron lens. I was fairly confident using these two pieces of gear. What I was not confident about was how the 25-30 year old expired color film would perform. I did convert some to black & white as it was more conducive to the subject matter.

Escape
Via Flickr:Some genius thought a nuclear power plant along Lake Michigan's shore was a good idea.
The Zion nuclear power plant was opened in 1973 and closed in 1998. It's operating license expires in November 2013 at which time a 13 year dismantling process will begin. Perhaps by 2026, the lakefront will be restored.
