Koda loves Kula so much better than Honolulu…green grass, cool mornings, and all the sticks she can chew!

Gone to Maui until Wednesday!

(Also, don’t worry, I’m not checking any cameras etc. through luggage!)

Kodachrome Clips

I finally went ahead and mashed together the random video clips of Koda that I’ve taken with my G9 so far in Windows Movie Maker! It’s not much, but enjoy!

One reason you might realize your desk is in serious need of cleaning is when you can make an item-search game out of it. (Notice that the floor is clean, while the desk is not, as everything is mostly out of puppy-reach.) Click the image to see a bigger version, and see if you can find all the items listed below.

1. 7 Polaroids 2. USB Card Reader 3. 580 EXII Flash 4. Brother’s Navy portrait, mostly hidden. 5. How I Met Your Mother Season 3 Disc 3 DVD 6. Wacom Intuos3 Tablet 7. Wacom Intuos3 Tablet Pen 8. True Blood Season 1 Set 9. Cell Phone 10. Keys on UH Lanyard 11. Roll of Kodachrome 64 in Canister 12. 5D MKII with battery grip and 24-70mm f.2.8L lens 13. Smitten Photography wedding promotional postcard 14. Western Digital Passport portable hard drive 15. Storyboards for “Teddy Bear Apocalypse” (Wouldn’t you like to know…?)16. Xbox 360 17. Playstation 2 18. Ink drawings in a comic-style done by me 19. Postcard of Haleakala Crater 20. World of Warcraft mousepad (Gift from Sarah!) 21. Health insurance bill 22. TV remote 23. Swimming goggles 24. Binder of DVDs 25. Flash diffuser box 26. Microfiber lens cloth 27. Japanese Spitz puppy named Kodachrome 28. Sunglasses 29. Puppy Nutri-Cal gel tube, apparently leaking. 30. 2 dog brushes

Okay, most of those are pretty obvious, but they do give you an idea of the variety of stuff that I had on my desk.

And yes, I did clean it!

Photo of the Day – Kodachrome x2

Today, Kodak announced that they will no longer be making Kodachrome film. But it will live on forever, partly in Koda’s name, partly in Paul Simon’s song, and as a legend amongst photographers. I’ve never shot Kodachrome film myself, because by the time I was into photography it was far too expensive to buy and process for it to be wasted on me, but I do have this roll of Kodachrome 64 that I will keep as a memento of a different era in photography.

This photo was processed with the demo version of Alien Skin’s Exposure 2, set to Kodachrome 64. It’s unfortunate that this filter will be a ghost of film past, but at least it’s something?
