DOWNSIDE: I spent the week dealing with eye irritation. The doctor says it's likely a little infection that eye drops will clear up. Still, I prefer contact lenses to eye glasses — the spectacles get in the way at the camera viewfinder and telescope eyepiece and don't correct well for computer monitor distances. Oh, and doc says I need to ditch my contacts — germs may have taken refuge deep inside the silicone matrix ready to attack again!
UPSIDE: I sold the Canon PowerShot A650 IS camera! It really is a fine little camera, as demonstrated in this blog. Excellent optics and exposure system. I wasn't crazy about the viewfinder, however, or LCD composing of shots, or its macro function. It'll be a great camera for its buyer and I'll stick with my bulkier Fuji FinePix when not using the DSLRs.
WEEKEND: No plans as yet. I hope to complete selection of photographs for my little October showing. I guess I need to actually work on that if it's to get done. Better quit writing and start editing!
What October showing? Did I miss something?
The person who is in charge of the "art gallery" are of the library asked me if I would consider showing some of my work during the month of October. (Actually, she was stuck and had nobody else to fill the space.) I said I'd be glad to and will hang some of my stuff from long ago and some much newer work. So, maybe 10 to 15 pieces, all told, will be hung… and I've still got to finish up the new pictures. I hope to get the prints ordered Sunday or Monday. Yup, cutting it close! — JG
So cool!
