In December I took a photo of a branch that had come off our orchid plant. Check this out--it's got a bud on it!
This is a sure sign that spring will come again...although I hope not TOO soon...I'm still holding out hope for a significant snowstorm!

061 - words
As I was driving home, I was listening to a CD of some of my favorite songs. One lyric in particular caught my attention, and I had a perfect image in mind that included magnetic poetry spelling out the lyric. Then I got home and started pawing through my words, and one of the ones I needed was not there. Boo.
So I started alphabetizing my words instead.
060 - Tabasco
In November, a Mexican restaurant opened in our town. I think we've visited Las Chicas Taqueria more often than we've visited all of the other Owego restaurants combined since then.
The inside of the restaurant is a total riot of color--this is just a glimpse!

Nº 25 of 365 days of film: Suitcase Full of Cameras
(Tuesday, 25 January 2011) I leave in the morning for a conference in Houston, Texas. I really had to fight the urge to take all these along with me...

059 - boots and records
Matt's pinhole camera photos inspired me to play around a little more with the pinhole attachment for my camera. Other than changing this to black and white, this photo is straight out of the camera. I need to play around with the attachment some day when it's still light outside!
Also, I think I may have some dead pixels...uh-oh...time to start saving for a new camera!

057 - stack
Eric and I went to the library in Ithaca today. It's got a pretty good selection of photography books and an enormous collection of graphic novels. Eric also appreciates their great CD collection. We ended up with a giant stack of stuff, all of which we can return here in Owego when we're finished.
One of the great things about living in Owego and working at the library in Binghamton--I've got library cards for two different library systems!
Libraries are awesome.

055 - holding the stem
After Eric's grandmother's birthday dinner, we stayed and talked with his uncle for a while.
I liked the reflection of his hand on the counter in this one.

(Friday, 21 January 2011) Put some Sepia Type 100 film in my Automatic 100 at lunch time. It's been awhile since I used Sepia and couldn't remember if I set the camera to 300 or 3000 speed (film is 1500 iso). Tried 3K out with meter all the way to light and took this shot out my den window.

(Monday, 17 January 2011) Cameras in tow, I decided to conquer one of my fears—I walked out onto the frozen lake! Figured nearing the end of my first roll of film in the Black Slim Devil was a good motivator.
Used my Canon 9000f to scan the negative. Still getting the hang of scanning film…

049 - tiny bowling
I received this miniature bowling set in my New Year's cracker a year or two ago, and I finally pulled it out of its tiny package this evening. I tried to bowl, but the ball is pitiful in comparison to the pins, so I was successful only in nudging one of the pins to the side.

Today was a really busy day at work, but it was one of those good-busy days....you know what I mean?
At any rate, it's nice to spend some time in my slippers at the end of the day.

045 - snowy sidewalk
I LOVE THE SNOW. Some of my co-workers blame me every time it snows 'cause I get so excited about it. One of them asked me why I love it so much, and I had to think a minute.
I decided that the reason that I love snow is because it's the closest that this world has to magic.
This is the view from our front porch after I got home from work this evening. It's awesome.
Nº 11 of 365 days of film: 6
(Tuesday, 11 January 2011) Looked through my film drawer this afternoon and came across some PX 100 First Flush. Love the timeless feel to The Impossible Project's Silver Shade films.

044 - surprised cat
Our cat perpetually has a surprised/terrified look on her face. She's kind of ridiculous.
Nº 9 of 365 days of film: Permission to Make Mistakes
(Sunday, 9 January 2011) Read that applying heat to a developing PX70 shot can help the colors pop. Thought I'd test it out with some test film. These erasers were the most colorful objects I could find at the moment. Used a hair dryer to heat this up for about 3 minutes.
