Thank you and welcome, new watchers! You are all loved and appreciated!

Hi puppets! I'm happy you seem to like my two new pieces. I still consider myself on a photographic break...in a couple more weeks I should have more free time.

I'm REALLY getting into film photography. Yesterday my dad asked me if I'm becoming a camera collector, to which I replied, "Is that a bad thing?" I actually think I am becoming one. Already I have a Polaroid SX-70 (though I don't use it, I have yet to modify it for modern use and it's in Montana), a Nikkormat EL with a killer lens (I need to take it to the repair shop, there's something wrong with it I'm afraid), a Diana F+, and a Diana Mini, not to mention my 5D MK II and my (no longer used) Rebel XT. I've been hunting for a Canon AF35ML as well (once so popular, now so difficult to find), but my most potent desire is a Pentacon 6 TL with a Biometar 80mm f/2.8 lens. King Santa Claus Jesus, help me out please?

My sub should be gone within hours now. T'was nice while it lasted!

Anyways, just 1 question for you:

1) In these digital times, do you ever worry about how your art will last?

I do. It really scares me...knowing that the majority of my work exists as pixels on a screen and data on my harddrive. When I'm dead, how will it be preserved? Even printing it all onto paper can't ensure its legacy. Maybe I need to print a ton of large hardcover books, enough to hopefully get stored somewhere where hundreds of years from now it they can be found.

Anon, my puppets!
