Unboxing ‘Spring Tide’
I became aware of Spring Tide: Van Zoetendaal & The Collection thanks to a rather glowing, if unrated, review by Jörg Colberg.

Unboxing ‘Kodachrome’ Issue One
‘Kodachrome,’ the new quarterly magazine from Eastman Kodak, arrived today. It’s an interesting thing.

Foreign Observer is a color zine by Daniel Rodriguez. It’s sold out at ShootFilmCo, and is no longer available on Daniel’s website. It’s sort of …
Unboxing “Forth Goes the Road”
Forth Goes the Road chronicles Christian Watson’s drive from Hillsboro, OR to Stag Bay, AK without maps or cellphone or motel rooms, just his 1980s Jeep, some cameras, an occasional diner somewhere, and a dog for company. It sounds like a great trip… https://youtu.be/7bLKWfOeZW4
