Post the Second

The end of my holiday draws near. Haven't really been anywhere, just a 3-day trip to see old friends and family, abandoned when we relocated to Brisbane last year. Encouraged that everyone still remembers us. Moreover, nobody said "Can I have that fiver back?" Mostly, I've been pottering about and just enjoying not going to work.

I do intend to see the Cartier-Bresson exhibition at the QAG, but that will need to wait until my RDO next week; it opens on Saturday, but I'm back at work then. Then later in the week, I'll attend a private viewing at a small studio/gallery in north Bris; I'm exceedingly envious of the space there: it's set up not only for photographic printing, but has a couple of printing presses as well, all contained in a custom-built facility that makes me ache with desire. I discovered Myrtle Street Studio when a friend told me about her entry into a pinhole photography exhibition there. It's small but perfectly formed.

For now though, time to venture into the garage, there to fit shelves into a bedside cabinet, and possibly make a start on a new desktop for Heather. I've often said that power tools are a way of making an arse of things very quickly, so I shall use them with care. If I feel bold, I might even bring out the old spokeshave.

    I take photographs, sometimes with obsolete technology. I look at the night sky. I drink coffee, and whisky (Scotch, or possibly Irish). I read and sometimes write. I Tweet, occasionally (@ozalba). I might ruminate and fulminate from time to time.
