I will not hide where I’ll be going in this post. I’ll talk about your photos, be they film or digital, and prints.

My mother has a cupboard with boxes and albums of photos. I assure you, she’s no Vivian Maier but the photos she’s got document the life of our family throughout several generations.

Even better, they go back to the start of last century with a photograph I cherish very much. 

This is a photograph of my Grandfather… no, not the distinguished gentleman but the cute little guy. This photograph must have been taken around 1920.

I have found a most marvelous way to stretch time!

Enjoyed a nice moment? Great! now you can stretch it out nearly to infinity! There’s just some small bugs I’ll have to work out….

Main trouble I got is that as of today it only works with unpleasant time. So that sucks but I’m hopeful that I can get this right, probably in TimeStretch.app version 2.0.

By the way, may I introduce my best friend, Sully the cat. Doesn’t give a damn about my problems…

OK, back to serious!

I think I finally made out the WHY in http://www.whyfilmcameras.com! The site’s name came to me as I pondered over really why I like film and it’s gorgeous cameras. It was obvious to me that I loved them, but less obvious to pinpoint the reason to it. A word of warning first!

Film is said to be expensive! Might well be, if you don’t factor in the recurring cost of a digital camera (after all you ‘have to’ renew at least every 3 years to be up to the challenge!).

Or not?

From Wikipedia:

Adobe (US: /əˈdoʊbi/, UK: /əˈdoʊb/;^[1] Spanish: [aˈðoβe]) is a building material made from earth and other organic materials. Adobe means mudbrick in Spanish, but in some English speaking regions of Spanish heritage it refers to any kind of earth construction, as most adobe buildings are similar in appearance to cob and rammed earth buildings. Adobe is among the earliest building materials, and is used throughout the world.

That’s where it’s at for me and Adobe. From now on Adobe is just a mud brick for me, not any enslaving subscription software (I wonder about the ‘other organic materials’ mentioned in the definition above 😉 ).

Yes, I hate it with a passion!

Those last two weeks I’ve been spending my days between the bed and the couch. Speaking of a choice here! Before the surgery I had a number of great scenarios in my head… At last having time for myself, at last being able to think about the answer to life, the universe and everything… (42’s the answer!).

Nope, boredom’s the real answer!
