Starting the month with messing around with my fancy new (to me) zoom lens, albeit I did run into some minor blur issues (especially on that river photo) because of the 1.0 version on the lens not having updated OIS directions, so I clearly had a reason to do a quick firmware update on both the camera and on that lens. Fortunately, the 35mm prime had no reason to be updated, so that was already safe. Despite the blur, I do still kind of like the river photo as it looks kind of watercolor-esque, like a shutter drag but done by somebody who was running instead of in car with suspension. Also, funny timing on the harvest supermoon, so I was able to get some fun images while it was peaking over the horizon.

Leo’s Italian Grill was always a bit of a neighborhood name, as it was featured on a recent episode of Kitchen Nightmares (which was filmed a little over a year prior to us going) and was completely turned on its head for the better. Gordan Ramsey’s design team did a great number on the decor, and the food was pristine. They decline being closer to Highway 71, though, which would get them so much more business than just relying on delivery!

Oh man, this is my new favorite set of photos and there is SO MANY. Took the day off for my mother’s birthday and we decided to go out to the nearby river trail and it was gorgeous and full of good photo opportunities. About 2 miles of good nature goodness by the river and paid goose and duck actors. Also felt the need to grab a new film sim and found an Alpenchrome recipe which for the most part worked its magic. I did find myself increasing contrast and slightly lowering the color temperature pretty consistently, but generally it was a great experience both shooting and editing these photos as needed. https://film.recipes/2024/09/25/alpenchrome-classic-chrome-for-hikes/
