16 June
So yesterday I went to the darkroom.
I have so much to do and all of it is pressing, and I haven't been in months. The most important, of course, are Melissa's contact sheets, but also I still haven't given Cynthia her birthday presents yet, and I want to give her some photos as I always do, not to mention the fact that I will be seeing someone soon whom I want to give some pictures as a surprise, and then there's the American Photo contest, the deadline for that is rapidly approaching!
That's alot of pressure on one little Saturday.
And you know what? Got a nice bunch of work done! I did all of the contact sheets, and didn't hate them too much, though I didn't look at them too closely, so they could easily be far worse or far better than I realize. Melissa is my biggest cheerleader, photography-wise, she tends to walk around behind me saying, "Yay, Kymm! Go, Kymm! Take them photos, rah rah rah!!" or something like that, which is great and I'm thrilled that she has such faith in me, but I always feel as though someday she'll see some contact sheets and say, "I've been had!! I thought you were an artist, but you are a hack!!"
It probably won't happen this time, but you never know. I know that I didn't take anything like enough colour rolls, but there's nothing I can do about it now.
Besides the wedding shots, I also did about six pictures for Cynthia and two pictures for that unnamed person whom I will not name, but I have the most time for her, so I will go back again. And everything that I printed, I made an extra copy for American Photo! Hooray for me!
And I haven't anything else to say, so more digital shots for you! I can see myself getting lazier and lazier, if that's even possible, which I'm not certain without my actually growing roots or moss.
And it occurred to me that I don't have to scan things at Kinko's, that I can in fact take digital pictures of my work! O, the cleverness of me!
C'mon, if you were a judge in the American Photo contest, you'd choose one of these, wouldn't you?
And two more things, happy Bloomsday! And happy Father's Day, I miss you, Daddy.
Today's
horoscope:
You swing from a total absorption in nitty-gritty to being bored and wanting change. Allow both thoroughness and the need for variety.

And that's why I'm throwing myself into the abyss. Abyss, I say!
