Beseler Enlarger

Artfest is over and I cannot stress enough the work that goes into just setting up and breaking down the  artwork, table and propanels!!  There were a lot of folks that stopped and talked to me and I did hand out some of the information I had printed up. I can't say it was a success, but I wasn't out any money, so that was good.  My artist friend whom I shared the space with did excellent!  And I'm so happy for her as she is an up and coming budding artist and people LOVED her work!  That is just so great for her.  Good job Rose!

I finally heard back from the company that found the foam gasket for my Beseler enlarger.  It didn't get shipped until Monday morning, so hopefully today I will get it.  Over the weekend I picked up some more 8x10 glossy fiber base paper and chemicals, so I would be ready to go when the gasket arrived!  I do hope it solves the light leak - otherwise I'm hosed.  Although I did get the name of a local guy in Sacramento who works on them.

Sunday I had a photo shoot for some friends of their nine month old son.  Now I will be working on those images sometime this week so I can get them off to them as soon as possible.  Last night out of part boredom and cleaning off my work table, I double matted and framed a Japanese block print (post card size) that I have been wanting to get finished!  Voila!  Done!
