Darkroom Supplies

Friday I felt like a squirrel out gathering my nuts for the winter! Translation: Buying supplies for my darkroom and studio. I'm finding that I will now have to purchase the ink for my Epson 2400 online most likely from Freestyle since the places I normally buy my supplies from in Sacramento are not carrying the ink anymore. I guess that would basically be easier for me anyway. I don't know what it was about the Epson 2400 it must have been a short-lived model because it seems to be left out of many printing conversations. I guess one of these days I'll have to replace it, but it's been a great printer for me and I've never had any issues. KNOCK ON WOOD!

I also bought a new camera bag for an upcoming trip to Europe. I needed one that would carry two cameras and accessories. I had seen a woman with a banana shaped sling bag recently. You could carry it on your back side, and then wehen you wanted to take a camera out, you could pull it around to the front of you, unzip it, and voila! I saw one and tried it out, however, it didn't have alot of padding so I could see me with a lot of bruises, and it could really only hold one camera. Nice thought though. So I found a canvas bag, with lots of padding, and the insides that the cameras go in actually pulls out as a bag, and you are left with a travel bag of sorts. So I got that one. That way I can also put my wallet in it and it too can sling to the back. It also has handles to carry like a heavy duty purse when my neck gets tired! ; ) The brand name is Giottos Group. I will try putting my cameras in it today and see how it feels. I haven't had time until now.
