Did not set this up. Happened upon this randomly. None of my photographs are ever set up. I love this.

Same photo 2 weeks ago. This time with a Nikon D750 and a Sigma ART 35mm f/1.4. Who says the camera doesn't matter? And I say that without saying one is better than the other, but they are very different.

I've had this crap little camera for years, and it was years old when I bought it used for about $100 on craigslist. It replaced the one that had a broken lens module which replaced the one I left in my pocket when I put my pants through the washing machine. I have plans to replace this one with the newest version. Having rediscovered it has changed the way I've changed photographs recently. It's still a crap camera. But sometimes I like taking crap photographs.

Pink Alley. More selfies per square foot than any urban landmark that isn't wings painted on a wall.

Another titan of the industry falls. Over $6 million in debts owed, selling toys for adults. How is that possible?
"We were just a bit sluggish to respond to (the post pandemic market)." It's a special type of incompetence in the world of retail that spawns a statement as dumb as that. They won't be missed.
Top photo; Rohloff chain tool. $129 or so a lifetime ago. There's a newer version available for just a bit more. Middle picture, a BMX and 9spd Park chain tool nestling a Campagnolo freehub tool. Everything there is obsolete. Bottom picture; truing stand with a long lost iteration of QBP bike tube packaging in the background, to show how old my artifacts are of an industry I was once a part of. I miss it. I don't miss it.
