Don't remember if this was the champion or loser.

I'm a little amazed I haven't posted anything in two months. I've started to realize I've become a little weary of the finishing process of film-shooting; namely, cleaning up the scanned photos. Since moving to Thailand I've taken more digital photos than I ever have in my life, thanks to working with two small, creative orgs that need constant online documentation to get attention. The shooting process and results are dissatisfying, as I'm still using a P&S (albeit a nice one), but the quickness of seeing the results and the 15 seconds of color-correction per photo before uploading...sigh. It's pretty great.

Which doesn't mean I'm not shooting ye ol' OM-2N. No, I brilliantly--brilliantly!--just keep shooting film, piling up rolls, eventually developing and scanning, and then nothing. The files sit on my hard drive for ages, unedited. I need to get motivated somehow.
