Not Herself Today...

Dolly seemed to be a little out of sorts this Halloween day...There's something a little scary showing up in her photos :o

working plan...

I have about 30 hrs to do papers, postings and read parts of 4 books and if by some chance it all gets done I will start a painting. (How I will learn chapter 7 in Spanish is beyond comprehension!) I don't know what I will paint...but painting is always a break from these other things. My Canon is back home from the repair shop and I may take a few digital photos...well its never a few it's 100 bad ones and 6 good ones! So looking forward to end of semester in 5 weeks....it's all downhill from there. Two classes in the spring WOW! I can paint and photo my little heart out.

Santa Fe NM Amazing!

Santa Fe a photographer's Paradise!

Photoshop

Someday when I have a lot of time I will finally figure out Photoshop. I have at least 3 books on the subject and two of those come with a CD, and that's pretty crazy because it's putting another thing in my computer that I have to figure out. So much to do....so little time...

New Mexico...etc.

Dolly had a lot to do in New Mexico. She poses here with her friend Flower who is a long time resident of The Ghost Ranch. You can see I am desperately trying to grab her out of the way of Flower's hoof, and I did just in time. Poor little girl...so trusting! This photo didn't develop correctly and only works when scanned by a film scanner...it's too dense to be hand printed. I am just happy that I have it at all. Scanners are wonderful for retrieving pictures from hopeless negatives.
6 weeks of school and numerous things to do! Storming outside ....lovely dark at noon! It's great!!!!

trying, trying

Well, this blog so far has been a failure and it is midway into the semester. Dolly is fine, but I haven't had time to get out and create anything new. The big competitor is Spanish, I have to study every day and that's not good! Painting is not going very well, I have been painting a lot, but redoing a lot. I don't think I am good at "having" to paint something, so as a result I probably won't be in our Senior Show. Things don't fall out of my brain in themes, I guess. Oh dear!! I'm in trouble. On the good side I only need 1 class to graduate, but I will take 2 to fulfill honors requirements and be considered part-time. Ok that's enough complaining for now!! ps I have new pictures of Dolly that I printed Friday, but after 12hrs on this computer today I will have to download them maybe Tuesday. thanks for listening...your much more attentive than Zoey.
