Adventures in Monkey Braining

I talk about something huge going on in my life right now. I also mention a little bit about the backlit picture frame I am trying to perfect.

In this episode I talk about my latest experience with developing black and white film, my first time printing 8x10 photos from my desktop printer on metallic paper, and I celebrate my discovery that Ad ventures in Monkey Braining has finally hit 10 episodes and can be found on 7 different platforms including Spotify....Woohoo!!!!

This episode starts off with me going home to Arizona. I make a stop and take a few photographs at a look out point in the mountains of San Diego. There was a bunch of fog or fog like smoke from near by fires in the valley with a few peaks in the distance. Then I ramble for about an hour on various thoughts and ideas related to photography, and cameras, and such. Then just before I enter the state of Arizona I stop on the freeway just before an exit called "Winterhaven Road" to take a fee pictures of a river winding back into a green pasture, leading to a water tower. Thank you for listening.

This is the voice recording of me as I take a few pictures in the moment during my road trip to San Diego, CA. I also talk about the developing result of the 4x5 slides I shot during this trip....if you want to see the images I posted them on my www.Flickr.com page. It is in the album's. Titles "Adventures in Monkey Braining". I also posted them on my Instagram page under the user name "Crimsonrain78.

This is just an update on how things have been going for me since my last episode. I talk briefly about taking an ancestry DNA test and my results. Then I talk about cameras and tripod I acquired. Sprinkled in all of that I talk about how lucky I was to spend a large period of time with my family and how it made me feel and what Iearned from it...I you would like to view my photography I have an account on www.flikr.com and Instagram under the username "Crimsonrain78".

I posted this episode late due to breaking the phone I use to produce the show. I also talk about 2019 moving onto 2020 and my plans or goals for the next year. I state my email - celrstial.one@gmail.com - and invite people to contact to me.

I briefly discuss what I learned about the Lab-Box during my first experience using it to develop slide film for the first Tim. I also give some tips I think would be helpful for someone else who is attempting to process slide film for the first time.

I talk about the Lab-Box I backed on Kickstarter delivered to my house and what I plan to develop in it first. In part 2, I talk about the first wedding I photographed and what I learned from the experience.

First I tell a short story about a moment I had to save my camera from impending danger. Then I talk about my camera Thrifting habits and mention a few of my friends. Then I talk briefly about the two of three venues I post pictures on the internet. I hope you enjoy listening.

I describe the feeling I have waiting for my film to come back to me from the developing lab, a little disappointment of the camera store location I go to closing, and "THE LAB-BOX I COMING! TH LAB-BOX IS COMING! "Yeah!"

In this episode I nervously introduce myself. I explain what is "Monkey Braining" and why I chose " Adventures in Monkey Braining" as the title of this podcast. I also talk about my journey through the years that resulted in my love for photography and my dream of becoming a Professional Photographer some day. I talk about why I chose to create this show, what it will consist of, and what I hope to get out of this experience.....topics described in this paragraph may not be in this order in the episode.
