Don't know why I even forced myself to go out to a little street festival today picturs taken zero. nothing interested me. I have gone out at night and in the day used High ISO film low iso film and notta.

 Hell I am so cranky I sound like an old Model T. Well next Saturday is an antique Tractor show maybe I will have the energy and the mind set by then. I have Color slide and B&W loaded with more lenses than an optical shop but just feel nothing. I think I will take a nap.

 Oh well I hope it returns soon as I am bored

I felt the same yesterday while at the fair, I just let the camera do what it could without much help from myself. I was going back today but didn't feel 'the pull' so I stayed home, too cold 68 degrees.

I'm in a long funk myself. Just the way things work.

Camping is a good idea. Make it for at least 3 days, and you'll be more relaxed. What do they call it now, going screen-free?

Don't feel bad, Larry. I've been in a funk for a long time and can't seem to climb out of it. The Union Pacific steam train is coming though here tuesday. Maybe I can catch a good shot when it rumbles through. Also, maybe the stupid picture will look like something this time. Last chance of the year before things start looking like Ron's photo. :eek: :eek:

Today was a little better I did not go shooting but I am scanning and I even threw a whole roll in the trash after I scanned it..... I have a new roll scanning now and I think that it is helping me.

 Get that Choo Choo buddy and seeing Ron there reminds me that Fort Campbell for the near future is also a thing of my past. I am going to relax and try C-41 here soon and if that works out E6 is next.

That 'camping' picture was taken during the winter of 1961/2 on the Fulda Gap in our base camp.
Either Whitey or I took the picture with the same camera that he sent me a few months ago. An Agfa Optima ll.
     I was going back to the fair today but about the time I was ready to go it started raining big time.So I opened another of last years Christmas presents which was 2 CDs with old Ma & Pa Kettle movies on them. One guy even had a C3 Argus around his neck with the case open even. I remember the last time I went to one of their movies,it was my girlfriend and I. Somewhere in the middle of the movie I guess I was getting pretty serious,so you might say she was trying to redirect and started talking like Ma Kettle. It worked, I started imitating the Indians. Besides that we were in a 37 Chrysler coupe.

LOL Ron it is funny how one picture makes us remember something totally unrelated.
