Back in action!

Well, sort of. At least my car has been repaired. My job has switched over to winter hours extremely early this year, so I’m back to the 10 hour days. That kinda cuts into my time for photography a bit, since I don’t get home before 9pm most days. Hopefully it will only be a temporary thing, and once the “Summer Sale” is over I can go back to normal hours for another month or so. I wasn’t expecting for my summer to be cut short already!

Here’s one shot from that roll of film that was waiting to be developed when my car decided it was done working for a bit…. I mistakenly shot this roll at ISO 400, but it was actually 800 speed film, so its a bit washed out.  It also was crazy sunny that day, which probably didn’t help either. I did try to tweak it a little in PS. I kinda like it in this pic. One of those happy accidents I guess.

There’s another couple of new shots over in Traveling Gnome as well.

Almost

I almost had a bunch of pictures to post today, but instead, I’m about to have another nasty car bill.

I jumped into my car this afternoon, after finishing off a roll of film, to get it developed, and my car got me about a quarter mile down the road before it decided it had enough, and promptly stalled out. I tried to start it up again, and didn’t even get a sputter. So, after waiting on the side of the road for about an hour for a tow, and a ride back home, I am without a car, or a roll of freshly developed film.

Sucks. A lot.

And if one more person says “well, I guess its time for a new car…” I’m gonna SCREAM!

That’s all for now… Hopefully, the boy will be feeling up to a drive tomorrow and maybe I’ll get my film developed.

Oh! And I added another picture to the Traveling Gnome’s page, courtesy of Steve and his super cool new Verizon Dare phone. There’s a link over there on the right!
