No photoshop, just REALLY expired polaroid film.
Provivid 689. I've had some questions about it. Never heard of it? Yeah, it's THAT expired. So old the cartridges are metal instead of plastic. And apparently if you shoot directly at the sun it solarizes the image.
Esistenza
Ritrovarmi in questo ovale
con un legame vitale
in solitudine a volteggiare
con l 'infinito aspettare
di qualcosa.
…………….
Crescendo vidi cose senza senso
cosciente del perduto collettivo senno.
…………….
Esseri travestiti
professare falsi miti
e scuole dove si imparava a vivere
lasciando l'intelligenza reprimere.
Sicuri di un tranquillo lavoro
si sedevano su un falso trono
……………
Pier Paolo Pasolini

With a heavy coating of our famous Lake Effect snowfall covering Northeastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, I made my way out trackside with no real plan in mind.
Turns out this day would be pretty productive, with catches of the AC&J shortline, CN's EJ&E heritage unit leading a CSX train, as well as some action over on the Bessemer & Lake Erie.
A rare run up the Girard Branch was enough to make me shift my focus that direction. Recently returned BLE 905 leads southbound over Locust Lane, and a beautiful snow scene to boot.

the macromonday theme for yesterday (7/23) was photographic gear and/or equipment-- this was an idea i had but didn't set up til late on monday, so i didn't use it then.
These images were taken at Ludington's North Breakwater Lighthouse, Lake Michigan, on Oct. 27th, 2010. A violent autumn windstorm created 21 foot waves that day, which slammed against this Great Lakes lighthouse. It certainly was a moving experience for me to witness nature's fury like this.
An exerpt from a regional Michigan newspaper:
Headline: Windstorm Creates Massive Waves
By Sharif Durhams of the Journal Sentinel - Oct. 27, 2010
The wind whipping across Lake Michigan is creating massive waves. The National Weather Service recorded a 21.7 foot wave Tuesday in the middle of the lake at a buoy east of Washington Island, weather service meteorologist J.J. Wood said.
The buoy also recorded a 20-foot waves early Wednesday.
“We should not be upset with others that hide the truth from us, when we hide it so often from ourselves.”
Building takes a long time in Second-Life, even if you are proficient in it to the point where others strive to try and learn from you. On a smaller scale, detail is always pleasant; but the bigger scale you go. The more problems arise, too many to start listing off. Finding motivation each day as well as new ideas, styles, techniques and then small things in general that would help you improve on a daily basis is.. Exhausting really.
A lot of people will say "Oh I wish I could draw/sing/dance/build/sports/etc. like you! Mine suck!" A master has failed more times than a beginner has tried, by no means am I master of my hobby. The further I delve into it, the more frustrating it gets. Especially when you strive for the perfect balance of detail, atmosphere and more.
My birthday was very recent, which I got to go shopping at Midnight Order and Warehouse with some friends. My favorite of them all are the brand new eyes that Aiizawa had made.
