I could never paint or draw to save my life, which is why photography intrigues me so. I still love to watch artists with a fair bit of envy, watch their process, and love the tools of their trade.

More LC-A+ goodness, this was from one of my last rolls of Kodak HD400.

| More LOMO LC-A+ goodness |

The LOMO LC-A+ is turning into one of my favorite cameras. The lack of framelines is minor, especially now that I wear glasses full-time – I can’t get close enough to see them!
The film window makes rewinding a 36 exposure roll at 24 exposures a thing of the past, and the fit is close enough to the original LC-A as to make no difference.
I’ll get a review up here soon, I promise.

One particularly hot morning, on Sept 13, 1948, a man known as Roland “Rollie” Free hopped on his Mobil Oil sponsored Vincent HRD Lightning, determined to break the world record of 136.18mph. A record that had been unbroken for the past 11 years. His first attempt shattered the record with a speed of 148.6mph. Rollie wasn’t satisfied. Convinced his safety leathers were creating unnecessary drag, he stripped down to nothing but a pair of swim trunks and a goggles. His trademark style of lying flat across the motorcycle instead of a traditional riding stance added to the insanity, hurtling Rollie to a record of 150.313mph and into the books for the next twenty years. It was a run that resulted not only in the record, but also in the creation of motorcycling’s most famous photo ever (the shot above of Free piloting the bike horizontally), taken from a speeding car racing alongside. —SEAN SULLIVAN

Light Test is a collection of light test snaps from photographers. Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes when they’re getting the exposure right, testing out compositions, or just blowing off steam in the middle of a long shoot?
