My hypothesis is that these older batteries just don’t put out enough power to run the M8 properly. It now feels like I’m able to freely use up to ISO 2500 on it.

I recently migrated my entire photo back catalog to Lightroom Classic. Getting here was a very agonizing process, but I’m very glad it’s done now. I think it will be much better for me going forward.

My Leica M8 has suffered from horizontal banding issues for a while, which bummed me out. I was less inspired to use it. But I discovered tonight that the issue is likely not the shutter or the board at all, but actually the battery. Replacing it appears to have eliminated the issue entirely!

A project that I’m watching is ILLUMinator, which is new tool that manages Lytro cameras and libraries on modern desktop OSes. abstractpolygon.github.io/ILLUMinat…

There are far too many candidates running unopposed this year on my ballot. I find it difficult to believe there wasn’t a single person out there to run for all those roles. Democracy is supposed to be a marketplace of ideas, so it doesn’t bode well if we are only getting preselected defaults.

Let’s pour one out for Sears in Shoreline, WA. I did two stints there before college. Opened in 1967, it was a massive building that was far bigger than the portion that was open to the public by the time I got there. www.shorelineareanews.com/2026/09/s…

Sometimes you just gotta crop. Also, who lives in that insane looking house down center?

Some of my favorite shots from Kaua’i.

Hanalei is such a beautiful place.
-
I am thinking of the people of Kaua’i, who welcomed us onto their island and gave us unforgettable experiences. Now, I’ve gone home and they are still there. Power is out. Comms are limited. It’s hot and muggy and there’s no escape. Basic amenities like refrigeration don’t exist. Don’t forget them.

Made it home! 🎉

Last leg of the trip home.
-
One of the first stops on our trip was to Opaeka’a Falls.
-
We’re 37,000 feet up in the air, but these clouds are way higher than us! ☁️
-
Kissed Maui a quick hello and goodbye on our way back home from Kaua’i. Glad they have free Wi-Fi and a USB charging port on this airplane. I was still running off the last bit of power I saved up from before the hurricane!
-
But at least we survived. I kinda want to have t-shirts printed up for our group that say: Qapla’ at Kapa’a! 🤪
-
I think my one true regret on this trip is that we weren’t able to hit up Kenji Burger one more time! 🤤🍔
-
It’s about 3:30am and my CPAP battery has finally run out of power. The entire island of Kaua’i remains in a near total blackout. It’s hot and humid. Comms are spotty, and my flight is still 7 hours away. Aside from the hurricane, it’s been a great trip, but I’m more than ready to come home now.
