I'm right now editing 3000 I'm sorry to say "captures" I've taken on this
road trip to move to the east coast from June 12 to July 21. I put 5000
miles on the Camper van. At 2.99 a gallon @ 10.6895243949081899 miles per
gallon average.
I fooled around with time a few times a week in Photoshop as I saw a few in
Bridge. Now that 'vet  gotten the space perspective of a few weeks I'm
plowing though the Bridge contact sheets giving them between 3 to five stars
and tweaking some which grab my attention and saving them in Photoshop
format.
I may get a 99 dollar Epson Stylus Photo R220. That's a step down from my
2200. So I'll have a short stack to show for it. Instead of having to carry
my laptop around. You can put them in you iPod?
Although a C88 cost 69 bucks I'm saving a fortune and it uses pigment inks
but only 4 of them. To the R220's 6 I think.
So as I tweak I just save one to jpeg smaller and its all set to upload.
I but yous guys have been through that a hundred times.
But I have so many to me thrilling images I cant even believe it.
My "body of work" from over decades has gotten more than tweaked.
I'm happy as a clam. In this case Manhattan clam chowder.

I did shoot a few rolls of xp2 with my M6 and a 90 APO Asph and a 40
Summicron. I've got tons of rolls of film to stick into plastic pages and
scan. Then tweak and print. Mostly XP2. Fueled with Liquid Hydrogen!!! :)

The more space between the shooting and the editing the better.
Years later ill know better who the real winners are.
But for right now I'll risk letting some people see this first audition.
Like the WOILD!!!
