Could you forget the awful things I've done? Could you forget the awful things I've done? Well I'm sure I would become your favorite son If you forgive the awful things I've done
Sweet jesus could you take this pain away? Sweet jesus could you drag this shame away? If the devil offers, know that I would say "Sweet jesus, blood it washed my sins away"
Make room in your mansion house in the sky Open up your big house in the sky But don't ask me what I've done cause I will lie Just make room in your mansion in the sky

About this blog
PHOTOGRAPHS are hastily scanned (when not digital) and poorly home-developed (when not by a professional) , very rarely cropped and never ever processed, and generally unblemished by anything that could make them, well, better. THE ABOVE STATEMENT is a lie, or rather has been a lie since March 2010. I tweak levels, lightness and contrast regularly (I even used a mask once), I often crop, and I've tried colorizing a couple of photos. I use GIMP 2.6. DATES are semi-random, give or take a couple of years or more.
LOCATIONS are approximately accurate. Usually.
TITLES are not necessarily relevant.
CAPTIONS are most certainly irrelevant.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION is sometimes wildly inaccurate. Labels include films which do not even exist. I think.
TECHNOBABBLE explains recent - digital - endeavours, from the point of view of a person who knows a couple of things about film photography and 35mm cameras but fuck all about digital anything. Don't expect insightful comments on technology, expect a novice's enthusiasm - or dismay - upon learning stuff everybody else already knows.
