Summer was just a really long blink for us. I can sum it up in
two three four words: broken, arm, snow, cones. I like to save 4-5 rolls of film up to send them out for processing, but since I have not been shooting as much lately, I couldn't contain my urge to have this roll of
Kodak Portra developed at the Walgreen's down the street. It's nice to remember how I was able to find the time to relax a few months ago. I shot these with my
Pentax ME Super.
I just got home from a very early morning photo-excursion/adventure, and it truly was an adventure this time, as I decided to stop at a flea market in the ghetto. I say ghetto all the time-it's a slang word that gets a lot of use around here. Ghetto=very poor area of town yet full of character(s) and color. I usually don't stop at flea markets here in El Paso, because there's hardly anything good being sold (aka junk), but the piles of shoes and toys/stuffed animals are pretty interesting to look at. Also, local farmers sell their produce. I almost bought some zucchini squash, I was close...but then I saw this scary clown doll, took a Polaroid of it, and ran away. Just kidding, I didn't run away, but I did leave.

This is how much stuff I have going on. It's time to clean and organize. Creativity has come to a complete stop, as it does when everything starts piling up. |
my studio does the same thing ~ every week or so I need a day to just clean up or I can't work.
ReplyDeletethe film shots are lovely ~ love the greens. I cannot wait to get my 2 rolls back!
