I just got my 114270 Explorer back from a service done by Reeds. I was surprised when I was quoted at 12 weeks but my watch was returned after only 4 weeks. I was told I needed a movement overhaul, a new crown, and a new crystal. I requested no polishing. The first red flag upon receiving my watch was that the bracelet was installed backwards. Okay I can overlook that .. The sales associated fixed it for me on the spot although he struggled with it for a while. I am now noticing the bracelet near the spring bars are completely chewed up. Next thing I notice is a massive scratch circling my entire bezel and a big scratch on the case back. So now I’m forced to have the bezel polished to fix this scratch. I’m hesitant to even give them my watch back at this point.

Any Underoath fans in here? Here’s three shots from their recent Asheville show.

Some diptych photos taken in McDowell County NC from a recent film roll of film.

Some diptychs from a recent roll. Trying to capture some Appalachia vibes in Western North Carolina.

Any of you GR users try out the Pentax17? I am loving mine. Makes for a great film companion to my GRiii. I am getting about 80 photos per roll too!

Got my first roll back today. Shooting Portra 400 at box speed. Overall I’m pretty happy! Some of my exposures have a bit of a green cast to them. Not sure if they’re underexposed or if it’s a scanning issue (using Ball Photo in Asheville). Shooting my next Portra 400 roll at 200 to see if that helps. Here’s some diptychs.

Just got my Pentax 17. I made this little cheat sheet for zone focusing. I measured my shoe and converted the ranges from ft to shoes. Now I can just count steps to my subject 😄.
