Last Kiss by John Lustig for November 28, 2018

They could always take a few group shots…

You see, kids, back in the olden days, there was this thing called “film” that you needed if you wanted to take pictures. But in order to get your pictures, it had to be “developed” with chemicals in a “darkroom.” Yes, I’m old.

I thought that they used try-bods in photography work?

“F-stopped”.

Snicker.

Enlargement underway.

It could have been worse, John….they could have been in their skins…..

Flop.

I spent much of my young professional and personal life working in darkrooms. Now, thanks to you, John, I’m suddenly feeling seriously disappointed.

it’s her aperture that I find so fascinating!

Don’t worry sister. I think he’s got plenty of focus to go around.

And more outstanding work from Diego today.

Don’t know why he would have a follow spot in a darkroom, maybe just to block the door.

Why is there an iron lung in that darkroom?

He’s using digital, so you ain’t gonna see much.

He’s only got digital zoom. The longer it gets, the softer it is.

And there’s the joke about the traveling photographer who was preparing to shoot the two naive farm girls. He’d been under the hood adjusting the old-time camera for a time. One of the girls asked the other what he was doing. “Trying to focus,” the other said. “Boaf us?” said the first.

I shutter to think of what will happen next.

I bet he wants to check out both of their Sprocket holes.

Something doesn’t click here. I thought they’d be better developed. Or that he’d know enough to use a fixer. He should learn more about depth of field too. And what about self exposure, timed release, and… mounting?

Don’t be so negative. Check out this slide. A true Kodak moment…

This is why there was always a rotating door or a double door with an interlock. Modern film was so sensitive it required IR lighting and night vision glasses.

I got your “focal length” right here lady. You just stopped an “F”

Persistent problems with the pinhole camera.

A very tense situation – hope nobody gets shot!

Well, the red light is on.

Points for most photo puns.

“Come and join us! We can do a double exposure!”

Re-reading the comments, I think we’ve sunk to a new depth of field.

MAKE IT STOP!

MAKE IT STOP!

(…sobbing…)

I shutter to think where this is going….

Your gags make me shutter.
