Yesterday went well. I was able to get in the darkroom and develop six of the 11 rolls of film I had from the Mediterranean Cruise! Now I only have five more to go! Then I'll do contact print sheets for each roll all in the same day. It felt good to be in the darkroom again. It's so soothing, and to think I used to doubt myself.
Then in the midst of all this I received a phone call from someone who had gone into the High Hand Gallery and seen some of my Bodie color prints. I have a couple images of the old forgotten cars left on the property and people just love those. I must have sold at least five already of the car prints. So he was calling to order two of the prints for his daughter's birthday. I love it! So now I have the frames, one of the images printed and will print out the other. Then mat and frame and take to the gallery so he can pick them up next week. That was a plus for me and just made my day!
I just got a call from my sister Pat and I'm jealous 'cause she already has her pictures printed and in albums! She said she has a couple of pictures she's not sure where they were from. I should call her back and tell her to check to the back of the print, as they usually print the date it was taken on it.
The first morning in Venice of our first full day I got ready early and went out to take pictures. Not many people on the street just those walking to work. I came across this scene: a stuffed bear with a bottle of wine next to him outside a restaurant. Well, someone was having fun!
