This week mine was homemade soda. Fermented sodas, citric acid + bicarbonate sodas, different juices and flavors like lime + lemon + cherry and pomegranate or mango peach or cola (homemade knock off)

Photography has got me pretty good. Specifically old interesting concrete, graffiti, decaying structures, that kind of thing. Been at it for a good while too, this is one I can hopefully string out to just become a long-term hobby!

    I'm rooting for you, just don't fall too deep into the rabbithole that is vintage lenses^^
    But if you do, here are my personal favourites:

    • Minolta MD Rokkor 50mm 1.4 (Or the 1.2, if you find one at a good price)
    • Pentacon Auto 50mm 1.8 Multi Coating
    • Helios 44-2 58mm 2.0

    I imagine old lenses in general would work wonderfully with the motives you mentioned, with all their little quirks and design flaws that give the image extra character

    Ha, that rabbit hole yawned right in front of me almost immediately! I’ve ended up with a few, but I’ve sort of stuck on a couple - the Helios 44-6, and a Helios 28mm that turns out to be a Tomioka in disguise (and about 1/5th the price!), and a Nikkor 50mm 1.2, and Nikkor 300mm. The 300mm especially is phenomenal, easily the nicest manual focus I’ve ever encountered, it’s a joy to use and takes absolutely awesome pics. There are a couple still itching at the edges of the irrational-craving container, but I think I’ve managed to rein the gear acquisition in, in general, and am trying to focus on composition, and learning FOSS editing tools like Darkroom.
