New black & white film

I developed 9 rolls of black and white film last night -- here are some of my favorites. This from Sauvie Island just north of Portland -- floating houses on the channel that forms the western boundary of the island.


This is a shot I've been trying to get for some time-- although I don't think either of these quite achieves my vision of what the shot should look like -- maybe getting closer.... ?! I like the clouds.




And here's a couple of shots of the Industrial area below Interstate Ave, on the Northeast side of the Willamette.




I was out walking in St. Johns this week (Monday, I think) and I saw black smoke rising from the north side of the St. Johns Bridge. I ran down down to arrive just as the fire truck did -- and snapped this shot. It was an RV that was totally up in flames in someone's backyard.


And a last for today: I went to Hawethorne Ave. on Wednesday to meet with my friend Nathan for lunch, and to walk around a bit and snap photos -- we both shot this little doggie poking its nose below the blinds.
