&lt;p&gt;TV party. April 6th, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is from that expired roll of Kodak B&amp;W 400. Some really cool grain and exposure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Not going to lie, the two rolls I got developed have some of my favorite shots I’ve taken in a long time on them. Going to post more tomorrow.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There’s just so much good in this. I can not wait to see more, Mr. Crocker.&lt;br/&gt;(yes, that’s right. You’ve earned your “Mister” badge today. Respect.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reblogging this here too. Crockeronline is a good friend of mine and a hell of a good follow. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49942544047</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49942544047</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 May 2013 10:13:44 -0700</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ad5cf6e843dd181808767531b0394d4c/tumblr_mm6wzmOkMZ1qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49461551469</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49461551469</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 14:28:34 -0700</pubDate><category>koninginnedag</category><category>Amsterdam</category><category>amandarust</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/01d5726aba580470f7804bafb8535029/tumblr_mm6vjqw39p1qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49459252767</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49459252767</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 13:57:26 -0700</pubDate><category>Amsterdam</category><category>koninginnedag</category><category>amandarust</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/7593e7fb9090e2c96e130de9b16615dc/tumblr_mm6vfit2u61qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49459065670</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49459065670</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 13:54:54 -0700</pubDate><category>koninginnedag</category><category>Amsterdam</category><category>amandarust</category><category>street</category></item><item><title>Dam square, Koninginnedag in Amsterdam, 2013</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/90b8617a73cec822352383434aa44a3c/tumblr_mm6v9d1TPV1qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dam square, Koninginnedag in Amsterdam, 2013&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49458797480</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49458797480</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 13:51:13 -0700</pubDate><category>koninginnedag</category><category>Amsterdam</category><category>amandarust</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8754e196fd1f92d4dc2eeafbfeb62bbe/tumblr_mm6v4bR7Zx1qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49458573831</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49458573831</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 13:48:11 -0700</pubDate><category>koninginnedag</category><category>Amsterdam</category><category>amandarust</category></item><item><title>oh, you silly girls</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/83cbfabef55799f8b1d36bd1a75cd81a/tumblr_mm6u97YaV01qzuwffo1_400.gif"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;oh, you silly girls&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49457222249</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49457222249</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 13:29:00 -0700</pubDate><category>koninginnedag</category><category>Amsterdam</category><category>Queens Day</category><category>amandarust</category><category>animated gif</category><category>photo bomb</category></item><item><title>Koninginnedag in Amsterdam, 2013</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/64042e378530c61a50e2b57b8914ce32/tumblr_mm6rqcTnXl1qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Koninginnedag in Amsterdam, 2013&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49453515636</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49453515636</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 May 2013 12:35:00 -0700</pubDate><category>koninginnedag</category><category>Queens Day</category><category>Amsterdam</category><category>amandarust</category></item><item><title>Wabi-sabi: represents a comprehensive Japanese world view or...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/a8e579e3d84b85d443b2664010d89152/tumblr_mlxnncSsyG1qzuwffo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wabi-sabi: represents a comprehensive Japanese world view or &lt;span class="mw-redirect"&gt;aesthetic&lt;/span&gt; centered on the acceptance of &lt;span class="extiw"&gt;transience&lt;/span&gt; and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is “imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete”.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The words &lt;em&gt;wabi&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;sabi&lt;/em&gt; do not translate easily. &lt;em&gt;Wabi&lt;/em&gt; originally referred to the loneliness of living in nature, remote from society; &lt;em&gt;sabi&lt;/em&gt; meant “chill”, “lean” or “withered”. Around the 14th century these meanings began to change, taking on more positive connotations.&lt;sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Koren_1-2"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;em&gt;Wabi&lt;/em&gt; now connotes rustic simplicity, freshness or quietness, and can be applied to both natural and human-made objects, or understated elegance. It can also refer to quirks and anomalies arising from the process of construction, which add uniqueness and elegance to the object. &lt;em&gt;Sabi&lt;/em&gt; is beauty or serenity that comes with age, when the life of the object and its impermanence are evidenced in its patina and wear, or in any visible repairs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is the best definition &lt;a href="http://youtu.be/fHikSWYTuMg"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; (the best definitions of anything about life usually come from semi-drunk older Japanese people. At least, I’ve found that to be the case)&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49036880626</link><guid>http://amandarust.tumblr.com/post/49036880626</guid><pubDate>Sat, 27 Apr 2013 14:28:00 -0700</pubDate><category>amandarust</category><category>wabi sabi</category></item></channel></rss>
