I was going to post a link to a photographer who shoots with holgas and does some very nice work, but his thumbnails took forever to load on his website so I'm not going to. I hate that! I use dial-up - I'm cheap. I don't know what it is but I find so many websites that do not optimize their photos for quick loading. I suppose it's people with broad band they check their site and everything loads fast so they think it's fine--well it ain't!

Something I've been pondering, (no, it's not getting a view camera...) is getting up very early in the morning to print and do film. I could get up at 4 or 5 am and get a couple of hours in and stuff could wash while I'm getting ready for the day. I'd have to go to bed earlier and I wouldn't have the opportunities for midnight snacks but I guess I'd survive. The hard part is deciding when to begin. Because I don't really want to get up that early. But the way it is now I print for a couple of hours after my kid goes to bed. After print washing and clean up it's 1 am -- I get up at 6:15 am. Some times I'm just too tired to start printing at night. That's the problem I want to prevent. Once I started exercising in the morning I never had a problem with missing a day, but at night I'd be too tired and blow it off. I think both Edward and Brett Weston got up super early and printed in the wee hours of the morning.
