Yea I like the Tumblr idea. Maybe we can have a sister thread going on here, its own dedicated thread.
Tumblr will happen, after people have a chance to suggest some more names. I don't understand the sister thread thing, though - this thread isn't enough? What would we talk about in another thread devoted to this?

Oh yea, if we post the photos ITT that would suffice. We don't need an extra thread.

If it is heading to NJ I would love to contribute. I am in Hopewell Township and am about 30 minutes from Philly as well so have a few options in terms of a physical handoff. I promise I will not keep the camera for a long time as well - I have been shooting film more often lately on my own AE-1, so it would be cool to use someone else's.

If it comes to me brother, I will send it to you next.

Awkward Davies still has it, I'm supposed to be getting it tomorrow (fingers crossed), we are currently working out a handoff time. I think maybe then I'll see if I can mail to AIIAZNSK8ER, though I guess Mannequin is closer (jersey?), so maybe I can just hand it off somewhere if he can come into the city.

I'm local to AIIAZNSK8ER, so him and I can ship/receive interchangeably after handing it off to the other.

Aren't you in the city too? If so I can hand it off to you after, since you'd then be the most local. There's a million different ways to show off NYC anyways, I'm sure it will all look very different.

Yeah, I probably won't do too much in NYC otherwise that would be boring, and there are cool things in New Jersey that some people just don't know about. We're actually a much cooler state than people realize. (We're kind of a big deal actually). Why don't you give it to Dorkasaurus and he can give it to me. And then I'll give it to that other NJ goon and then he can send it to AIIAZNSK8ER?

Would that work out and make everyone happy?

If I'm that other NJ goon, that sounds good to me; I can send it AIIAZNSK8ER's way (or meet up, not sure where he is exactly).

Agreed about Jersey - I think the NJ rep comes from driving through and up to New York being the only exposure that so many people get to the state. Really some nice places around, and it seems like other than night shots (light pollution, but then again east coast in general) there is always something new to find if I look.

I do have the camera now, so when I'm finished (should be pretty soon, since I've got a couple days just to shoot this weekend) I'll arrange a clandestine awkward handoff with Dorkasaurus. Awkward Davies is very nice and I'm sure he'll have photos up for everyone much more quickly than he shot them. (hint hint)

Hand off successful. Very very very sorry for the long long wait. Working four different jobs for little to no money has a way of sapping one's ability to shoot. I'm headed out of town for a photojournalism workshop tomorrow, but will have the pictures developed when I get back (Oct 1).

It seems to be OK with AIIAZNSK8ER and with nonanone, so it's OK by me.

Me too. Glad to see some movement happening again.

So the sequence of shooters is now:
nonanone (in possession) New York
dorkasaurus_rex New York
Mannequin New York or somewhere nearby with a similar name
rio New Jersey and its scenic pollution
AIIAZNSK8ER Virginia (which is somehow "South" - Texagoons, Australia goons, feel free to deride Virginia at this time)
BobTheCow Virginia
torgeaux Virginia and willing to give it a good hard shove to at least another time zone.

Photos! User #3, I suppose, technically skipping forward a little. I also did kind of a "day in the life of," trying to show off the variety of environments I pass by every day. The whole string of photos kind of follows the trip from Brooklyn to Manhattan, with various stops on the way for various errands. I chose black and white because I couldn't find any color 35mm. Good reason as any I suppose. Plus it's gritty and real or something.

I also had some frame overlap issues as you can see.

Awesome. I'm working on getting the tumblr up and running now. Thanks very much, nonanone!

Did the handoff to dorkasaurus_rex go down successfully / awkwardly?

EDIT: Re-iterating that the pictures are excellent, nonanone

Also, Tumblr is up:

http://dorkroom-ae1-world.tumblr.com/

"Dicpix.tumblr.com" was taken; I did not venture there to see. But our Tumblr is indeed titled "D.I.C.P.I.X."

Once I figure out the best way for other people to upload their pictures to it (first guess: email) I'll send out the relevent info to Awkward Davies and nonanone.

I'd like to have the pictures appear in both this thread, and the Tumblr.
