Yesterday I headed into town to get more chemicals so I could finish up the last of the film. By the time I got home I was only able to get two more done and I'll finish up the rest this morning. Then I will start making the contact sheets for each roll. This morning I was having a very tiresome dream that I was tinting some of my photographic images and remembered I had forgotten to rinse them one last time and I had to go back and get that done...and it just went on and on! So basically I'm still working when I'm sleeping!!
Last night I went to Loomis for our High Hand Gallery meeting. It gets extremely cold in the sheds. The owner is updating the place with heaters and lighting and his list goes on, but in the meantime we wear layers of clothing in order to handle the cold inside. By the time I was driving home my body was already aching from the cold weather. The good news from the meeting was that we had a great month in sales for October! Also while I was there I dropped off the special order and I will call the gentleman this morning to let him know they are ready for him to pick up. I still have labels to do for my photography I took in to High Hand. I keep telling myself every time I walk into my studio, "...do the labels, do the labels!"
The image I am posting today is also of Venice - in digital Black and White. We were returning from our tour of Murano and Burano islands, so this picture I shot from the cruise boat. As you can see this is just one of the many pedestrian bridges over one of the many canals throughout Venice. I'm honestly not sure which one this is, but they did point out one of the bridges as the "Bridge of Sighs". Remember the Robin Trower blues song, "Bridge of Sighs"? Well, the bridge got its name from the fact that that particular bridge connected the prison to the hanging place, and the prisoners would sigh on the long walk over the bridge to their deaths. Sad, but true.
