Old Timey (Sepia Filtered) Bicyles.


Old Timey Bikes.

Jet Star Super De Luxe. Pretty awesome name for a bicycle if you ask me. Jason and I now have matching bikes. We purchased them from my neighbors from down the street. He has a car from some forgotten generation he keeps in mint condition in his garage. In the backseat sit mannequins who are dressed accordingly. I wonder what they mean to him. I know he will miss his bicycles.

I'm going to Richmond, Virginia in two days. My aunt is getting married. I'm in charge of taking pictures and I'm nervous about the lighting/lack thereof. .

I started summer school on Monday. I've been taking Spanish notes for two high school girls who couldn't make the first three days. I'm getting paid $120, which is nice. I also missed the first day of Speech Comm 4, Argumentation and Debate because I misread a sign on the door outside the class. I thought that the class being "closed" meant "cancelled" and I didn't even bother to check to look if people were in the class... because there were. The Dean's secretary called the teacher to ask about the cancelled class. He understands the miscommunication and won't drop me for not showing up the first day. It would have been pretty disastrous because I need this to transfer.

Darn, probably too late, but as far as indoors stuff is concerned, bear with me, this guy http://www.ritzcamera.com/product/531660801.htm can in fact be useful for indoors stuff combined an optical trigger. Then just use the pop-up on manual, dialed down, to trigger.
The auto won't be accurate but within 2 shots you can figure out where you want the aperture to compensate, then you just use the shutter to allow or restrict the ambient.
