Yeah, the landlord got the heat fixed and it's hot in here!!!
School is getting crazy. We have 3 assignments due on Wednesday and got 3 additional assignments on Monday! Busy, busy, busy.
I am learning lots. We started Commercial Studio today. We shot with a large format camera, too. The 4x5 is really cool. It is a lot to take in but I am looking forward to working with it for sure. We are using film, but will be switching to digital soon.
As soon as the instructors show us how to scan with their equipment, we can scan all our film. Then I can put up some images, so you all can see what I am up to.
Maybe if I have some photos, more peeps will read my blog and/or leave comments. What ya think. Would you come back more or even comment if I had more pictures.
Well it is time for bed! Hope all is well with everyone!
Love ya all.

It is Freezing! My apartment doesn't have heat yet. The landlord is in the process of changing it from oil to gas. Just have the inspection to complete yet. It is still freezing. He loaned me a space heater until he can get it all up and running.
So I am running, literally running, around my apartment to keep warm. I have a hat, gloves and scarf on, too. LOL
How's the weather in your neck of the woods?????

My Apartment
I finally was able to take some pics of my apartment here in Mass. I have to admit it is one of the most luxurious apartments that I have ever lived in. There are 16 windows. Can you believe that???
Anyway, tell me what you think of it. I have been furnacing it with stuff off of Craig's List. Most of the stuff has been from their free list. Love FREE stuff!!!
So here it is: (Sierra and Squeakers followed me to each room to get their pics takens. It was funny.)
Living room - Free couch, Free Chair and Free TV. (Just got a free recliner after I took this picture. Actually it is still in my car. LOL)

Dining room - No furniture! :( But there is a built-in window seat!

Kitchen - I have a dining table and 3 chairs off camera! (Craig's list $40!!!)
Pantry - Check out the full size window in the pantry. LOL

Bedroom - There are actually 3 windows in the bedroom. Love it!!!

Bathroom - And another window!

Sierra and Squeaker's room (spare room) -

Sun porch - It was night when I took the pictures, but you get the idea! The kitties have access to the porch from a window in the kitchen. Fun for them!!!

New Digital back
We got our digital back for the Mamiya camera today. Now we are going to shoot digital with the medium format camera. I know this may sound like I am talking Greek, just nod your head and say "WOW" and know that I am excited. If you do know what all that is... Isn't that cool!!!
It only shoots RAW files, but I think we are learning how to convert them so that I can post some on my blog soon.
It was a beautiful day today. The leaves are starting to change. Near the grocery store there is a row of trees that are pure bright yellow. I am going to work on getting a good shoot this weekend.
Anyway, hope everyone is doing well.
Love ya all.

3 Shoots
Well yesterday was full of shoots. I shot one assignment from 8am until 11:30am with a DSLR (Canon 5D). Then ate lunch (quickly). Then from 1pm to 3:30pm with a medium format camera with film. Then the last shoot with the medium format camera with film again from 3:30pm until 7pm. That was a lot. It was fun, but I was definitely a spent puppy. Had pizza with 2 other classmates, but don't really remember the conversation. LOL
Today I got my first assignment back. I received full credit. The grading is a bit unconventional. Instead of grades , we get a potential dollar value that the assignment is worth. Then when we receive the assignment back, it has comments as well as the dollar amount that you received.
Anyway, I got a grade of $500, full credit. Yippee!
As soon as we get into more of the technical stuff, I can scan my assignments and maybe post some stuff. Does anyone want to see some of the images????
The kitties are running around like crazies. It is hilarious. They sound like horse on the hardwood floor. I live on the second floor and keep telling them I am going to get in trouble because they are so loud. LOL!
Well I need to go to bed. I am pretty tired.
Love ya all!
