it seems i could be liking film again! oh oh oh.
when last i went to texas, i did not realize i had loaded my xa2 with my hoarded roll of costly slide film and when i took it for developing found their slide film processor thing was broken (sad for the only *real* film place in town…) so i put it aside. it is hard to get to Image Works as i am only really out in the car one day per week and they don’t develop on saturday. so i kept it aside. other films have collected, so i decided to take them all on our monthly excursion to Target and get them done. the photoGirl shivered with fear when i asked her if she would cross process the slide film. after i explained, she said ok. and WOW. i liked the prints so much even though the colors are not as odd as i expected. there are also some of the new Bloch building at the Nelson Atkins museum in KC, with the most amazing sky, but the buildings are so backlit and dark, they are not so good, but some i might scan and post later.
then 2 rolls from my new nailpolish camera. oh oh OH. as it is working weekend, i can’t be a scanning beast, but maybe later…
and then this morning i found my wireless keyboard was dead. lucky that unused one was stashed in a cupboard in my office on campus… see me typing away? i think the old one is in warranty. apple makes a lovely computer, but their accessories really suck, i must say. and soon we are going to have Indian food for lunch.
