I love this challenge!! I really enjoyed looking at all of the photos I produced this past year and it was hard to pick just one for each month. I also realized that I need to get out there again with my Yashica Mat. Damn. I love that camera. lots.  2012 was the year that I really embraced film photography. I really wanted to learn how to develop my own film but never got around to it. I plan to, for sure, in 2013.  I can’t wait!

I have much more to say about 2012 but I will do it in another post. I will let the photos do the talking in this one. (click on the thumbnail for bigger)

I dig out my old film camera and shoot a roll of very expired film in Portland.

I took a hike with my new Holga. I have fallen in love with medium format photography.

Holga + Polaroid back = fun times.

Spokane Flickr group Reunion Tour! Another Holga shot on a Spokane street corner.

I bought a Yashica Mat and instantly fall in love.

I visit a foggy Larch Mountain with my new camera.

Mt Hood from LoLo Pass Road. Yashica Mat (of course).

My little brother gets married. (Yashica Mat + Tri x = weak in the knees)

PARIS!! This is an iPhone snap. I DO have film from this trip that needs to be developed.

I caught Seattle’s Public Market after they closed. Bummer. (iPhone photo)

An absolutely stunning evening at Trillium lake. (iPhone photo)

We spent Christmas at the beach and I had fun with Hipstamatic.
