Enhance Ride Quality and Handling with New Struts, Shocks, and Tires for Nissan Titan

Installing new struts, shocks, and tires on the Nissan Titan enhances ride quality and improves handling. Start by safely lifting the truck and securely supporting it. Remove the old tires and inspect the wheel wells for any wear or damage. Replace the struts and shocks, ensuring they’re properly aligned and torqued to manufacturer specifications. Opt for high-quality tires that match the Titan’s size requirements for optimal performance. After installation, perform a wheel alignment to prevent uneven tire wear and ensure stability on the road.

Harman Phoenix 200

So I finally got to shoot a roll of Phoenix 200 while in Chattanooga TN recently.

I was quite surprised by what I got. The color is very bright and very sharp. Can it be a little punchy, sure yes but it has a cool vibe to it I think.

Halation, yep it has it and it is proud of it. In fact they will tell you it is going to be there so that there is no surprise it is there.

My final take on this film is really cool vibe with punchy color and a very artistic vibe to it. I will be picking more of this up for future shooting and would recommend it for anyone.

Harman Phoenix 200 was shot on a Pentax P30 using a 28-70 zoom lens.

Capturing Grayton Beach State Park’s Tallest Dunes with Pentax P30 35mm Camera

So two weeks ago we took a trip to Seaside Florida for some much-needed vacation. While there we visited Grayton Beach State Park just minutes from where we stayed for the week.

One of the highlights of the park is the dunes in the park. These had to be some of the tallest I have seen in Florida, graint it I haven’t been all over Florida so they are probably bigger elsewhere.

On this trip, I had my trusted Pentax P30 35mm camera with a 28-55mm lens, shooting Kodak Colar Max 400 iso film. So here is a little portfolio of pictures from that visit to the park.
