Photo Market, just down the street from us, started recently taking color transparency film (Kodak and Fuji chrome, or E-6) for processing. It’s mailed out and I believed processed by a lab in the Midwest.
The rolls I’ve had sitting around for awhile have finally come back, and it being Labor Day weekend, and the traditional end of summer, and because I’ve been painting and reinstalling a sink in the downstairs bathroom and doing things for some thing I’m not going to write about right now (some of you might know what that thing might be), I’m going to share some of the pictures I’ve gotten back over the next couple of days.
The first two aren’t from too long ago. They’re from a trip we took to the excellent Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay.
A picture from a part of Portland I’ve got some connections to: Munjoy Hill. When I moved to Portland from Chicago my wife and I lived on Munjoy Hill until we bought our house. So great working in the kitchen and looking on Casco Bay in that apartment! My first business had its offices on India Street, in the Grand Trunk Building, which looks vacant right now… and a surrounded by parking decks.
These “Open” signs were on Congress Street.
And… it’s First Friday, which means Art Walk! We won’t be showing photography at Yellahoose today. But get out, hurricane shmurricane, and look at art, buy stuff from local businesses and artists (or just window shop), eat at a local restaurant tonight!
