Black & White In Cancun

When recently in Cancun, Mexico, I took my Nikon 35Ti camera loaded with some Ilford HP5+ black & white film.  Below is a collection of photos shot in late January & early February 2025.  Developed the film with my friend Steve and scanned the negatives at home.

EC: Use A LUT

Strong winds created a mist blowing across the beach and an afternoon sun provided a backlight. This scene immediately struck me as movie material.

String Cheese Incident

2022_CLondon52w41:  ARTIST SPOTLIGHT:  Musician of Your Choice

From the C.London website:  "Music is so divisive, and trying to elicit inspiration from music that doesn’t jell with you would not necessarily be constructive. So, for this artist spotlight, I’m letting you choose any musician that you want to focus on. Be sure to share with us who it is!"

My older son introduced me to String Cheese Incident and we went to see them at Red Rocks Amphitheater on July 23, 2010.  These images are reminiscent of songs in the set list from both the 7/23/10 & 7/24/10 shows.  SCI has been a favorite band ever since.
