@wishy I had someone take a pic of me on the peel apart film recently. It was so cool

@veganstraightedge @knf100 well I took a pic of you when you took a pic of me and I should send it

@mvaze pandan is ramba in Tamil / rampe in Hindi

Yes all the ingredients are common in South Asia also

@irix check out photos made by Graflok Lomo 4x5 cameras with the back. On instax wide. Really buttery.

Also with Polaroid SX-70 that has a 600 film conversion and a good flash, pretty nice :)

@petrikas Polaroid color looks awful now but the bw is really nice

Also really interested in this one tho I don’t have a 4x5 camera

If you shoot Mamiya this one seems pretty cool (ships from Germany)

I prefer hacky projects like these that build instant backs for good cameras, rather than using the dinky plastic cameras from modern Polaroid or Instax

@endocrimes very tempted to go Polaroid, their bw film is super nice

Instant film walk in SF: last Sunday of every month. Check @sfinstantphotowalk on IG (most artsy / photo types are only on IG.. most places)

I have the most overwrought instant film setup. I love it.

I have a Instax back from Nons, permanently attached to my Hasselblad 500C with 100mm lens

Nons also makes other devices like the SLR you can add a Nikon or Pentax lens to

There is a huge instant film community in San Francisco and it’s always fun to attend even if you don’t have an instant film camera. You can see the fun instant cameras people have, very impressive

My year in instant film (2024)

@TheBreadmonkey the time zone variation in this country is so huge, I’m only going to get to eat and thank people in 4 hours

And here’s my pineapple saga

https://buttondown.com/skinnylatte/archive/a-pineapple-saga/

My wife and I were talking about creating our own holidays, as a queer interracial couple. I take issue with my cultural traditions (lunar new year and Christmas) as I’m deprogramming evangelical Chinese Christianity from my life. So I decided that for lunar new year every year we will have a Pineapple Festival.

I will make pineapple tarts, then tepache, then pollo en chicha.

I started this last year:

Pineapple (Ong Lai) in Hokkien means prosperity

I also really enjoy a recent thing I’ve been seeing of famous ramen restaurants in Japan doing co-branded instant ramen. Probably made by one of these producers but tweaked to taste just like the ramen they’re known for. They tend to be a bit harder to buy but I always enjoy it when friends bring them for me from Japan or Singapore

Reddit comment with a good list of instant ramen that surpasses the average quality of regular ramen (stuff that comes quite close to restaurant ramen), and where to buy them online

I firmly believe most of these products are better than the expensive and not great ramen restaurants in cities without a thriving ‘fancy ramen’ scene
