I need to get rid of my pin eyed spooky Friday shoot even if I don't have anything to blog. Of course, that is silly because there is always something to blog.
It is only that I seldom start to blog unless I have an idea of what I am going to write. Thinking that you need to have an idea before you start writing is one of the leading causes of writer's block. If I just start typing, something invariably comes. Brains are very good at pumping away and finding connections in whatever is in front of them.
By the way, Karen and I will be going on vacation next week to North Carolina's Outer Banks. I haven't checked to see if there is wifi in the hotel so I don't know whether I'll blog much or not. Probably not much since I try, when I'm on vacation, to be actually on vacation and pay attention. Also, since I usually shoot in RAW format and my laptop does not have Adobe, I can't process pictures until I get home.
Oh...I guess I will post two quick pictures this morning from Halloween -- group shots of Brian, Melody and the grandchildren in their costumes. I was going to get creative and put little cartoon balloons about what I imagined the grandchildren to be saying but the clock is ticking toward time to go to work, so I will have to be satisfied with dialogue under the pictures instead.
NOAH: "Daddy's face feels like rubber."
CONNER: "Oh boy, Daddy's being weird again."
NOAH: "Hey, Conner, does Daddy do this often?"
CONNER: "Just look at the camera so we can be finished with this and go get candy."
MELODY: "Darn. I think I just blinked."
How cute! We have friends who live in the Outer Banks--have a great time. Hurricane season is over, right? ;-) P.S. You're right about just writing--I forget that.
ReplyDeleteHave a great holiday!
ReplyDeleteAnd indeed, brains are great for churning up the most unexpected stuff. Sometimes at the most unexpected moments.
I hope you have a great get-away! I bet it will be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAw, man! I need more sleep. I read that as "I shoot pictures in the RAW" LOL!
ReplyDeleteI've used "FastStone Image Viewer" before. I think it converts RAW for free.
Have a good vacation, my friend. I am on my way to Italy, but thanks to the miracle of Blogger I was able to post all the way through the 15th. Kind of odd being in two places at one time.
ReplyDeleteMiss you!
