A lot of strip malls are boring but what is up with this one? Maybe it's a set for the next gritty Netflix show set in Albuquerque. The artfully askew parking stops, the brick things, the gun store next to the smoke shop next to the kids store - so many dramatic opportunities.

Strip malls may be ugly, but they're home to such interesting businesses. I'm rather fond of this one, the yerberia "Fuerza y Poder".
Also I love how New Mexico is so casually bilingual.

I'm mildly obsessed with strip malls and their ilk lately.

Some amazing Triumph automobiles at the New Mexico state fair last fall.
I was going to post this with the rest of my state fair photos but I don't seem to be able to finish that roll of film.

This looks so midcentury to me, but I think is actually from the 1970s.
I've never used XP2 before and I expected I wouldn't like it. How wrong I was.

I don't know when Ektachrome Elite II 400 film was available but that's when I went on vacation to Barcelona. It was so long ago that I don't remember where this mysterious square is.
I developed the film last week, so the image is a surprise to me

I was taking some test photos and when I saw the results I started questioning why I ever shoot anything but Tri-X.
It's just so satisfying. It even makes dumb test shots look good.
(But I have C-41 chemistry to use up)
Happy spooky season.
