@ Manhattans | Prospect Heights

Olympus Trip 35 | Delta 3200
The new Ripple, from the former owner of Siberia, now called Manhattans...within dangerously close stumbling distance of my apartment.

More Olympus Trip tests with Delta 3200. In my usual haphazard way of doing things, I decided to process it at halfway between 1600 and 3200.

Languid | Lower East Side

Olympus Trip 35 | Delta 3200
More Trip 35 tests...trying it on "shutter priority" mode to see what it's capable of. The Trip does flash-sync at 1/40 with user-chosen apertures, or can be used on auto only up to ISO 400. It worked out pretty well with high-speed film and just keeping in mind it would always be 1/40.

More from the Trip 35 first test roll. I love that some people still wear outfits, you know?

Flea market | Chelsea

Olympus Trip 35 | Kodak 400UC
Purchased a $20 Olympus Trip 35 at this flea market, to add to my arsenal of Olympus products. With a nonfunctioning OM-10, a deeply-adored OM-2N, and a Stylus Epic, I am clearly Olympus' bitch. This is from the first test roll.

Olympus OM-2N | Kodak Tmax 400
I recently discovered that I had a roll of Tmax 400 in my bulk loader, which I haven't used in years...I cannot believe I didn't know it was still loaded. The film can't be much younger than 14 years and has developed some crazy grain. It's fun experimenting but I doubt I'd take it traveling.

I don't like this film. First try, very few usable results.

Thingyan 2009 | Jackson Heights

Olympus OM-2N | Kodak Portra 400NC
The Buddhist Missionary Society is led by a Rakhine monk, thus the Thingyan celebration held at nearby P.S. 222 featured mon di. Mon di is the Rakhine answer to Myanmar's ubiquitous mohinga, plus spice, minus peanuts.

Not surprisingly, the people of this temple were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and eager to talk about travels in their homeland.
