Gone to Maui until Wednesday!

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

My friend Neal Chin is a guitarist in this band! He’s the one in the hat. They have been playing at Jazz Minds on Kapiolani Blvd. as of late, and I highly recommend you go see them! I’ll post up their gig schedule as soon as I figure out what it is.

Some people keep cheese in their refrigerator drawer. I don’t!

(And yes, that is some Polaroid Type 55 in there…and no, I”m not giving it up for anything!)

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?

Waiting for a table outside of Little Oven, the boys started posing.  Two out of those three hats are actually mine, as they had raided my closet before heading out.

We went to Waikiki to watch the fireworks tonight!  Top photo was taken by Kaeo, and the rest by me.  Reid and I are making the “Are you taking a picture?” faces.

And here’s a cool photo that Reid took, but I processed:
