    Seven Eves. It’s an epic and I love long audio books. Definitely worth a listen. Red rising books are super entertaining and action packed.

    I used to use darkroom and it was super expensive and took a long time. My uncle has a darkroom set and I am tempted to take it from him but then again I don't know what I am doing with film in the first place. I have a nikon df from the 1960s and i love it.

    Primarily a D600 with a 50MM prime but lately I have been shooting on a cropped Nikon AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G ED. What I am getting is an extreme vignette. I'd be lying if part of my reasoning is being to cheap to buy a full frame lens but the effect is pretty cool.

    I am going to be honest with you, I am late to the party on Gizz so I've started listening to their earlier stuff first. I'm only at 12 Bar Bruise, but that said Gila shreds- love it. Any suggestions?

    Amazing detail in that movie, really setting the mood for how bleak the Earth had become despite the green of the crops around them.

    I wanted to try and find love in any life that ends. A moment of time in which we could understand the frailness of a human perspective, that fails more than succeeds. I look at what this man has done in his life, and found quite a bit of that. We are all shallows, changing day to day with tides and landslides. But a man of faith only needs to find love in pain and suffering to bring peace to its victims, scapegoating them is a weak understanding of the complexities of God. I am sorry for the lives he marginalized, and for the people turned from faith because he couldn't find love or compassion times when God would call for it the most. There are some people who sit far from a bonfire on a cold fall night, they stare at its brilliance but cannot bring themselves to let the fire warm them. Maybe they think the fire is dangerous, or maybe they have never felt that kind of warmth before, so they shout at other people walking toward the flame to stay by him, to gather their warmth. His is a lesson in the difference between the fire from fear, be warm my friends.
