i took out my polaroid one600 and decided to take a few photos. i like the out of focus shot here and will also try some manipulations with the film to see what kinds of results i can get...

Since it was so pretty today, I decided to go out into the yard and take some photos. I particularly like how this one turned out. I played around with iPhoto and made some adjustments with the features and think this turned out nicely :-)

trying to find a place

2008-01-20T18:54:00.001-05:00

Lately I haven't been taking as many photos as I have in the past. I guess I'm really struggling with trying to find exactly what I want to concentrate on. What subject should I work with? Which camera should I use? B&W or Color? Film or Digital? I'm not sure why I've hit this little slump but I hope that I can soon find some inspiration... I think that because our locally-owned photography store closed this past summer I have felt as though I don't have anywhere to go to get film developed or get enlargements made... It's kind of frustrating. Oh well, maybe something will inspire me soon. I need an image muse!
