more pdx (in black & white)

Finally got around to scanning these. Portland was just like the show Portlandia. And I thought they were exaggerating! We had a lot of fun exploring the city and I can't wait to go back to explore the Oregon Coast the next time around.
It's been disgustingly hot out here in Vegas. This heat wave is taking its toll on us. When the car thermometer reads 120, it's time to reevaluate our situation. Too bad we actually like living here (for the most part). I cannot wait to get out of this heat again. It's a brutal summer for sure.

dear new york,

I love you. In small doses.

 Lomography 120mm b&w film.

I miss taking black & white photos. It might be time to buy a few rolls soon and some b&w Fuji pack film. I love the depth, grain and simplicity.
I've been browsing through some black & whites on flickr to get inspired. Here are just some of my favorites: 1,2,3,4,5,6 & 7

On another note, this song makes me just want to drive to the beach and watch the surfers...
