Sometimes, a small detail can leave us with more questions than answers. Why is this little lock here? What is it meant to keep safe? Why is it so small, and why is it placed so low? Sometimes, the questions are more interesting than the answers.15 Oct 2026 17:57 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mxwn5pf2522bhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mwjevc5aa22fFrom Idaho into Oregon, a road unfolding beneath an open sky. Clouds drifted across the landscape, and for a moment, the world seemed to slow down. Nikon P6000. Black & white. A red filter to pull the clouds from the sky.27 Sep 2026 17:59 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mwjevc5aa22fhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mvbm2nnl5224A quick trip to Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge today with my daughter.

Spending the night and then Idaho. Taken at 75mph, my wife was driving and I photographed out the window. #blackandwhite13 Aug 2026 03:42 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mswpzbfpss2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3ms4jqfjxnk2mAbout a week and a half until we trade San Diego for Idaho. Looking forward to the adventure.This is probably one of the last photos I'll make here for a while. Since I mostly shoot black & white, it seemed fitting to post one in color. 😂 #Photography #Fujifilm #FujiXT2 #ColorPhotography #Photo02 Aug 2026 17:40 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3ms4jqfjxnk2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mq3f4gg2wc2dFound it! I've been searching for this Schneider glass loupe for years. It disappeared after I switched to digital and a couple of moves. Now that I'm back to shooting film, it's finally back where it belongs. #FilmPhotography #ShootFilm #FilmIsNotDead #AnalogPhotography #Schneider #Photography07 Jul 2026 19:55 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mq3f4gg2wc2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mpryzrl2b22iI saw this in a alley, another in my Abandoned Objects series. I kind of think this one gets use a bit. Fuji X T-2 with plastic pancake 25mm lens. I had to do color. I've embraced the beauty of imperfection. #PlasticLens #FineArtPhotography #StreetPhotography #PhotographyProject #ImperfectBeauty04 Jul 2026 02:24 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpryzrl2b22ihttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mpjhtaj6zc2iCaptured at home with my Fuji X-T2 and a plastic lens. No focusing, one fixed aperture, and very little to think about beyond seeing the light. Sometimes limitations help me pay closer attention. #fineartphotography #photography #everydaybeauty #photographer #blackandwhitephotography30 Jun 2026 16:55 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpjhtaj6zc2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mpfkpwe6w22vStayed home this morning and made a few photographs.

I'm using a new setup: a Nikon N70 paired with a Nikon-mount Holga 60mm f/8 plastic lens. I've embraced the beauty of imperfection. #FilmPhotography #BlackAndWhitePhotography #BWPhotography #HolgaLens #AnalogPhotography #FineArtPhotography #StreetPhotography20 Jun 2026 20:54 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3moqqifwbms26https://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mojm4xjmzk2fBeen struggling a bit with creativity lately. Took a walk along the beach hoping to clear my head. Not sure it worked, but I'll keep pushing forward. Some days you just keep showing up.

Just point, click, and hope for the best. It's less about thinking and more about feeling and reacting. The surprises, imperfections, and happy accidents are all part of the magic. #Holga #FilmPhotography #AnalogPhotography #BlackAndWhitePhotography #FineArtPhotography14 Jun 2026 21:42 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mobqfvgnac2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mnntsxmpos2cSome new work with a new setup.

I'm never quite sure what I'm going to get, and that's part of the magic. The surprises, imperfections, and happy accidents keep photography exciting. #FilmPhotography #ShootFilm #BlackAndWhitePhotography #FineArtPhotography01 Jun 2026 01:37 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mn6wykkwyk2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mmzy7vners2jFinished dinner and noticed the light coming through the screen door. Had to make a photograph. The cut lemon? Well, I guess you're in the picture. #Photography #BlackAndWhitePhotography #PhotoOfTheDay #EverydayMoments #StreetPhotography #FineArtPhotography #LightAndShadow #Monochrome30 May 2026 02:16 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmzy7vners2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mmwjtrdaos2hYou don’t have to travel far to make photographs. You don’t need expensive gear either. Vivitar V3800 gifted to me by a friend, a simple 50mm lens, and a roll of Kentmere 400 is more than enough. Sometimes images are in your own backyard, #filmphotography #blackandwhitephotography#analogphotography28 May 2026 17:20 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmwjtrdaos2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mlvtrghrd22zThe simplicity of a Holga and Kentmere 400. Just walking through Barrio Logan, slowing down enough to see familiar sights in a different way. Film has a way of making you look closer. #Holga #Kentmere400 #FilmPhotography #BlackAndWhitePhotography #BWPhotography #ShootFilm15 May 2026 17:20 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlvtrghrd22zhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mluf2fpons23Back to film. Back to the Holga. Back to Kentmere 400 and Rodinal. I missed the simplicity of shooting and the challenge of processing. Overexposed the film by at least two stops, had to pull process and guess my way through it. And that little black dot? A bee. #filmphotography #holga15 May 2026 03:24 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mluf2fpons23https://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mljidmrqq22kDrawn to nature’s chaotic symmetry — the way the new takes over the old. Black and white brings it all to life.

Just some window light, white cardboard, and a tripod.

My backyard fence captured with a cheap plastic pancake lens on my Fujifilm X T-2. Focus free, fixed aperture, monochrome with a red filter.

Shot on a Fujifilm X-T2 with a Holga plastic lens (adapted from Nikon).

Mostly industrial waterfront, but there’s also a pier and a beautiful park. Captured with my Nikon CoolPix point-and-shoot, which really fits my more relaxed way of photographing lately. #bnwphotography #streetphotography #monochrome26 Mar 2026 19:02 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhyc4n5eec2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mhvmy5rdyk2dThe Coronado Bay Bridge from an angle most people never see. Captured in Chicano Park, Barrio Logan. In B&W the lines feel almost brutalist. #blackandwhitephotography #streetphotography #brutalism #sandiego #barriologan25 Mar 2026 17:38 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhvmy5rdyk2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mhti4stv3c2kYou never know what you’ll see in Barrio Logan—cactus, artists, great food, coffee, and cool little shops. These cactus were just one of the things that caught my eye. 🌵 #barriologan #sandiego #streetphotography #simplemoments24 Mar 2026 21:06 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhti4stv3c2khttps://bsky.app/profile/mannymansd.bsky.social/post/3mhlvn43oac23@nirvanamono.bsky.social Quick trip to Barrio Logan this morning. When color speaks, I listen. Lately I’ve been really enjoying my Nikon CoolPix P6000—it lets me see without overthinking. #barriologan #streetphotography #colorphotography #nikoncoolpix #nikonp6000 #photographylife #urbancolor21 Mar 2026 20:46 +0000at://did:plc:77fd4xletihustfkl4jacab2/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhlvn43oac23
