work and work

Sorry no posts for a while it's just all been work, work, work, I've even had a "to do list" and I never have lists. But, everything is done for the deadline (12:00 tomorrow) so I might get out for a much needed run or a ride tomorrow afternoon. A couple of good things on the go, first off I finally bit the bullet and after nearly a year of umming and aaring I bought a digital SLR (Canon Eos 1000d), good for my work but also I hope will be lots of fun, taking pics of Kinder toys ticks both boxes I guess. And, I have found some available studio space in Horwich, not too expensive, hoping to go and have a look this week, if it meets with my expectations I'll probably go for it. First step towards being a practicing artist rather than a student. I'm quite excited about it.

Digital SLRs are just fab, I love mine (sorry Jez's), find it really crap with a point and shoot though at least they are lighter. I used to wander around years ago with my film SLR, loads of film, tripod, filters, little notebook....Trying to be more streamlined these days.

I can't believe you don't have lists, I'm a list fiend. I have lists of lists! I've tried living without but impossible.

Excellent news. Looking forward to seeing more pics.

That camera will be great fun! I miss my SLR from the days of film, but the compact point and shoot is what fits in a jersey pocket or purse, so that's what I use now. Looking forward to seeing new pics!
