another afternoon spent in joshua tree national park, this time with my 2010 nikon coolpix p7000.
the built in nd filter on this camera is really nice for days spent in the desert.

of course I didn’t forget my 2024 birthday pictures! this year was inspired by bert stern’s iconic photos of marilyn monroe & shot on my ricoh cx3 digicam.
florida hotel grounds

spent a few days in orlando for work & while florida is not high on my list of favourite states a walk around the resort grounds with my digicam one afternoon did make things seem a little better.
hollywood details
my streak of buying old digital cameras continues...
spent an hour walking around hollywood testing out the latest digicam I’ve added to my collection, the nikon coolpix p7000 which was originally released in 2010. so far I’m finding this little thing pretty fun & I’m excited to experiment more with the build in ND filter & the full manual controls.
fancy drinks
took my little 2009 digicam to bar mini in washington dc last month.
the experimental cocktails here are absolutely incredible.

the impossibility of perfection
in digicam, photography, diary
journal:
this is the core of the digicam/lofi/camcorder appeal. everything in our world got so polished & perfect & flat; the pressure to look like a glossy magazine life got to be so much that these frankly shitty early devices became irresistible. you literally cannot produce perfect glossed over documentation with a 2004 point & shoot digital camera. it is actually impossible. so the pressure to attempt to do so is lifted entirely. it’s a liberation from the confines of perfection.
