The above image is from the handmade pinhole cameras I out up on West Rock Ridge last summer, and retrieved a couple of weeks ago.

Still thinking about how to present the images. Ideas...There may still be a week left in August, but it might as well be September. The deadline for signing up for City-Wide Open Studios is 9/6. In my last post (has it really been three months?), I was all about re-focusing on deadlines. 

The truth was, and is, I am very deadline driven. It was my NEW tricky way to try to fool myself into thinking my deadline was earlier that fouled me up. Kind of like when I used to set my clock ten minutes fast. I always KNEW it's ten minutes fast so it never did anything other than give me something else to think about. 

But I digress... City-Wide Open Studios in New Haven is set for October. The kick-off party is October 4th at Artspace New Haven. The following weekend, October 12 and 13 is Open Studios Weekend at Erector Square, where I have my studio.

So, I have a few weeks to get some things together for that. Maybe some new work. Could be exciting to do a new series of cyanotypes. 

And that is what will keep me busy between now and 5pm October 13.
