meditation is still a waste of good shopping time

But I wouldn't have known it except for having credited someone for the old link so I could go back and try to figure out what the new link might be. Lucky for all of us that we almost never go back into the archives of blogs, because it's all been turned to mush, man, mush. Weren't we so cute with all our thoughts about keeping records for posterity? I mean, I know I'm maybe the worst blogger on earth for purposes of searching, and then if you've managed to find what you want, the links have probably gone dead and there is usually almost nothing there to help you try to reconstruct it... so... I'm thinking I might do better to lop off the entire back half of this puppy and THEN agonize over how many dead links are still left. Or maybe I should just never look. Or maybe I should go about inventing an internet that doesn't disappear everything on you. Or maybe I should think about doing only posts that expire within 24 hours... or an hour... or... or go to bed....

  1. So you've been rummaging around my Gallery...

    I have an adapter ring on the way so I can attach the new camera to my bellows.

    You can find me this spring crawling around on my belly amidst the wildflowers.

  2. Did I steal that image from you? I used an altered version of the one I used to post the original series... over a year ago... back when dinosaurs roamed the intertubes....

  3. And, if so, do you like my kooky incarnating of semi-random images?

  4. Yes, the image came from this series.

    Blades of dried grasses in a mountain meadow.

    And I do love the things you do with the photos etc. that you tweak.

  5. Ah, yes, THAT was the one with the itty wasp image that I could NOT make work from its smallness. I fucked with that one for DAYS! I had to give up. It would NOT yield. I love that picture.

  6. Well hopefully there will be more to come, not scanned from 30 year old slides but rather 18 megapixel beauties.

    Can you work with Raw images?

    But then I'd have to set up an FTP download site or something to send them to you...

    LOL

  7. Yes, but, my itsy wasp image is gone forever! I don't know what an FTP download site is, but yes, I want them... or some of them... and the BEST course of action is to just send ME that camera!!!!!

    :oP

  8. FTP - kind of like Bit-Torrent.

    I send file to server and then you can get it from there.

    I just found one called Filezilla - open source freeware. Has the client for downloading and has a server.

    Check your email!

  9. I'm already all zilla'd out from fooling with the wasp image. Gotta leave it for the morning. I'm stoked about that. There might be three images to get out of it. Maybe more.
