not awake.

Turning into not so much for the Pic'o'Day week. Partially due to covering other chores at teh Ranch, partially due to work schedule. We do 'Stay Late' commitments in OR here, which means on this day if the schedule runs long (pretty nearly always does) you know you stay late for overtime. In fact, five and a half hours yesterday. Not back to the House until 21:45 and pretty much straight to bed then.

And this morning, so far, three changes in the schedule and still no patient into my room. Life is... pick a word. Insert it. Probably fits.

Sigh of Relief

I've actually felt quite a disturbance in my wa not being able to post the Pic'o'Day this week. Due to circumstances, yes, including five and a half hours overtime yesterday. Still... yes.

( Abandoned )

The tractor is mine, and while the title reflects what I saw, it was not and is not actually abandoned. It is a 1951 Ford 8N which I use somewhat regularly on my small corner of the world. The photograph is from a test-roll shot with my Mamiya C330 while preparing for a major trip. This photo is post-processed to convert from colour to B&W, since the test roll was to determine did I like Fuji Provia 100 transparency film. I determined that yes, I do, and so took 30 some rolls with me to New Zealand. Purchased another dozen while there as well. That trip also saw me using about the same amount of black & white film, and a few others by different manufacturers. Provia 100 provides a marvelous base image for display, either direct projection (it is a colour transparency film) or printed.

This image obviously is processed to B&W. Another experiment with that process. Curves adjusted somewhat first, then desaturated. Not a part of the Mirror project, and yes I am still looking forward to feedback. Astute observers may well see the (exact) similarity, other than the process to B&W & some cropping, with my LJ icon titled "Harrison".
