While Waiting for the Sandman

It's the early hour of the morning in this part of the world and yet I'm still awake. No doubt, Mr. Sandman skipped over me this night. Actually, it's been a few nights since his last visit...

Pretty soon the skies will be on fire as the sun starts to rise above the horizon, painted a kaleidoscope of colors outside my bedroom window; tinted with crimson, with gold, vermillion, with amber.  Soon it will be time for me to get on with the day ahead.

What are your plans for today?

I love to buy crayons

Mondays... UGH! random thought

 

"Do you ever look at your watch and immediately forget the time, so you look again? And still it doesn't register, so you have to look a third time. And then someone asks you what time it is, and you actually have to look at your watch for the fourth time in three minutes? Don't you feel stupid?"

Fall 'Roid Week 2010

This week I participated in a photo project on Flickr.  Photos where taken with my Polaroid SX 70 instant camera for 'Roid Week Fall 2010 Flickr Pool.  I had a ton of fun learning new tips on shooting with a Polaroid and loved looking at all the magnificent photographs taken by the many talented Polaroid photographers belonging to the 'Roid Week Flickr Pool.

I just ordered a bunch of new film for my new Polaroid addiction.

1. It starts with one. And then another., 

2. all the small moments,
3. sometimes I let my expectations get the better of me,
4. etched against grey flannel, 

5. boiling sea, howling winds, driving rain,
6. Bonus 'Roid

Film used:  PX 70 FF Color Shade from The Impossible Project

sometimes I let my expectations get the better of me
