Instant Street Studio
I so much love this! This is the kind of photography I have read about for years and wished I could do.
When there were only two weeks (one weekend) left in SoFoBoMo the first Saturday of the Brampton farmer’s market season was that last Saturday of SoFoBoMo. I looked everywhere on the web for info on how to get a booth in artist’s alley, and I also sent an e-mail to the Brampton Arts Council asking how to get a booth. Alas I never found info on the web, and my e-mail went unanswered. Had I gotten a booth spot this is what I would have wanted to do with it!
Now would I have actually followed through? I don’t know.
I still stay up at night sometimes thinking about this stuff and hope that someday I do follow through.
On Flickr
This photo hosted on Flickr is gathering some attention. It is a variation on the photo from my last blog post. I shot this one on large format (4″x5″ polaroid Type 51 negative film) and spent a lot of time on the composition and droplet quality.

Could this have been a book?
For you facebook readers, this post is actually from my blog. While facebook presents this to look like yet another facebook page you can actually click here to see the actual blog, or click on the tiny little link below that facebook provides labelled ”View Original Post” to be taken to my blog. The full blog page actually sets the context of all my rambling on and helps all this make a little more sense.
I wonder if I could have come up with a book of this stuff?

I think I probably could have.
Oh well the month is up, and I didn’t create a book. Maybe next year I will be in the right creative mood to actually get it done. I am ok with this. It was fun thinking up book ideas and discussing SoFoBoMo with friends, and I made a new camera too.
