Going to the Discovery Workshop!

Comments (3)

I just can’t keep up with everything these days.  On Thursday, I’m heading to Me Ra Koh‘s Discovery Workshop in San Francisco, CA.  Amidst the unpacking and organizing that still has to be done from our recent move, I just haven’t been able to haul out my studio lighting equipment and take the self-portrait that I have to bring to the workshop.  Tomorrow is my last day to do that, so I think that last-minute pressure is going to have to get me working.

I’ve also been working on processing my digital files so that my prints come out looking just right from the lab.  What a pain in the neck!  It really is so difficult to get a good print, because any red …

Big, Dirty Trucks

Comments (4)

Nathaniel, Paige, and I took a small walk yesterday afternoon. We found this empty, undeveloped lot overlooking a beautiful expanse of open, grassy field. The lot didn’t have much except a few short mounds of dirt and gravel and two big construction trucks. At first, I thought that I’d try to get a few pictures of my kids among the blooming wild mustard and tall grass. After all, what could be more lovely than children tra-la-la-ing in nature? And I did get a few shots. After kicking around and carrying big lumps of dirt here and there (as kids just love to do), though, we decided to take a closer look at the trucks.

Nathaniel must have been in heaven. Nathaniel loves vehicles of all …

We’re Moving!

Comments (1)

Please forgive my lapse in blogging. We’ve been moving to a new home! We’re going on Day 7 of our move. We started on Saturday and did two full, exhausting days of loading all the furniture and big, heavy stuff into a moving truck. Although my husband and I put a lot of our own brute force (mostly my husband’s, really) into getting stuff around, it’s really amazing how simple tools can do a lot of work for us. A hand truck and a furniture pad were all we used to move lots of very heavy, bulky things. Using these tools and a ramp, we moved at least a thousand pounds of stuff (I’m taking a wild stab in the dark for that number). I …
