Bodies of Water

These photographs were shot on outings around Lake Merritt in Oakland, Tilden National Park and Downtown San Rafael over the last two weeks. Enjoy!

Seeing Through Grandpappy's Lens

This second round of photos are some highlights from a few rolls I just shot with my Grandfather's EX Auto Canon SLR that I have inherited along with other assorted personal items (Elk's Lodge fez, photos, etc). He brought it on his travels and took some really interesting pictures in Japan with it. It has his last name, Ansdell, as well as his phone number and the date of purchase (Oct. '75) etched into the bottom. Happy to be keeping his interests and possessions afloat and in use so many years later--I even occasionally watch movies on VHS tapes that he made recording films from TV mostly of the War and Western genres when staying at the family beach house. Feels good to reconnect, recycle, and, not to mention, this camera's aesthetic is the bomb diggity! Holga meets SLR!

New rolls on their way shortly.
