I still have pictures in my camera from my last trip to the park, but I still can't find the cord to my camera, so I can't get them onto the laptop... :-(
So no point in bringing the camera, really, as I'd just be replacing one set of park-pics with another...
Sometimes in early evening at the cottage I go for a walk. The woods is full of captured sunlight - I love it. But I can't quite seem to take a picture of it. I'm sure part of it is that I *see* it in three dimensions, and when I take the picture it's just flat on the page.
If I had suzilem's eye and talent, perhaps I could take the picture and have it look like what I see-what I picture.
I'll have to try that. I went through a period of time where I HATED my camera (I have a pentax K-1000) and was going to sell it - there's a gentleman who owns the camera shop where I take it to be repaired, and he is interested in it. Now, maybe, I'm going back to it. I have a roll of Holga film to be developed, but I can't find anyone around here that does it...
There's one place in the whole of Manchester that will develop Holga film. I went there once and- well, it's a long trek and it's expensive and I'm afraid I've given up now on the plastic cameras...
first shot with the sky-trail overhead totally reminds me of a ST:TNG episode. the one where picard (a righteous man!) gets knocked out by some freaky probe and ends up stuck in his own brain living on a world that died out like a million years ago. and he gets old and has kids and the last thing he sees is the probe launching to take the memory of this dying world off for other people to see.
no shit?! ha ha ha! me too!!!! that flute music he plays is rock on. and so damn poignant. when i think of lumpen bob and the way that ends, it makes me think of that episode. mezzler looking back on his own life, at the same time as looking forward to bob's future. TNG kicks a thousand asses.

Date: 2005-10-17 05:28 am (UTC)There is a solution--a spray called Bitter Apple, that tastes awful but is nontoxic, I assume for rabbits as well as cats.
Pet stores carry it.
