Someone’s ride to work – on film
I kind of love bikes, well I like taking pictures of them. The only reason I don't like riding bikes is because we live in a hilly area and I don't like helmets but that s beside the point. Whenever I'm in a city and I have a camera on hand, I take pictures of bikes, usually ones with no one on them. You can go right past them and snap a picture and you can make up any story about it or it's owner, which I find more fun than coming up with the story behind a person. My bike sadly is just sitting, well hanging, in the garage for a couple more weeks. Here is the start of my collection of black and white images of bicycles. More will join them soon.

new pictures – scans
I realize the images are very overexposed but that's what you get. They're from the memorial day parade. My camera strap on my LC-A+ broke while I was taking the pictures.

I just got my new Epson perfection v500 photo scanner. I have it all set up and i'm scanning my first set of negatives. I'm just using the epson scan software for now (i'll get photoshop in a couple of months at a student/education price.)
I'll see what I have in a few minutes and see if i should keep scanning that roll of film.
How to shoot good digital color photography?
I know I didn't word that as I should have but really i'm curious, how do you shoot good digital color photos? I mean I can make just about any photo look better just by putting it in black and white, which kind of bothers me. Anyone have any tips, suggestions, etc?

Tomorrow’s adventure
Tomorrow I am planning on going into the city (NYC) on a little bit of an adventure. I know it'll probably not turn out at all how I'm planning but here is the plan so far...
There is a workshop at the Lomography store from 1-3 that I want to go to, mainly just because I haven't been there in a couple of months (or maybe a lot more than a couple) and I'll get a 10% discount if i participate. (i'll hopefully remember to bring )
Afterwards I'm hopefully going to meet up with my brother somewhere in the city and head on our way to a concert on governor's island.
I'll update more later.
