Lo-Fi Digital.

I've been interested in photography on and off for a while now, and have often wanted a Holga or other lo fi film camera. Unfortunately for me, the prices of film and processing are too much for my parents to justify, so I'm stuck with my crappy cell phone...WAIT! I could get some practice with said device, it occurred to me a while back-at least there's something here to scratch my lo-fi itch. So, here are some of the best pictures I took with my cell phone, raw and unedited. (The cool part is that there are different color modes; I took black and white pictures, with some color ones mixed in.)

Immortal Tree. [Typecast/Poem]

First Day of School.

Hi fellow bloggers, typospherians, writers and readers,
Today marks the start of my senior year of high school.
With 5 AP classes and no lunch period, it'll be a tough one.
Bottom line: I'll be posting on and off, but I'll post whenever I get a chance.

Sunlight Haiku. [Typecast/Poem]

Head Over Heels or Love Poem No. 1 [Typecast/Poem]

I wonder... [Typecast/Poem]

The poem starts at "I wonder..."

Typewriter Ribbon!

So, while I was in Germany, my mom and brother were in India visiting some relatives. 
They asked me what I wanted from India, and of course I replied "typewriter ribbon." At $10 a pop here in the States, plus shipping, I figured, "Why not?"
When they got back, they revealed the ribbons:

 
They bought so many! Pictured here are 12, 5 red/black and 7 black-only; I had to respool one of them onto my Smith-Corona Silent from '52. 
Awesome! In India, these cost, as you can see in the second picture,  37 rupees, which is about $0.81!
Now I'm set for a while!
