PS: I thought Brian Walters "Adobe, Posts and Shadows captured the "Minimalist" theme quite well. It's too bad Godfrey doesn't shoot with his Pentax anymore, because this theme was custom made for him.

I had another image I wanted to use for Minimalist, but I couldn't find it in my "catalog". Turned out to be a FILM image from a roll I'd shot while I was running the PhotoLab at Target. https://flic.kr/p/2qFcfCX Taken with either a K1000, LX or PZ-1p ... (I fooled around with all three while I was working there). I want to get some kind of table-top film processor that will allow me to do C-41, E-6 & traditional B&W in 35mm, 120 & 4x5. I've got a shit-ton of various films in my refrigerator. I can't eat 'em, so I'd like to shoot 'em up. I've also got to go back & figure out why my film scans were only saved as thumbnails when they were copied to my server? (They're full sized on my Photoshop computer) Don't know what I'm going to do for February. No six-legged critters around to photograph right now & looking through my back catalog I've got a number eight-legged critters, but not very many six legged ones.

I just need to get around to getting my first 35 years of photography scanned.
