November 19, 2011

This week was our church’s annual week of prayer and fasting, and most of the prayer meetings were at the church office building. It’s about a half hour walk from our house, and I was so inspired by the fall colors that I brought a camera one day for the walk home. The churchyard at [...]

New Toys

April 9, 2010

A few weeks ago, I got my newest toy – a medium format Yashica-Mat LM, a fun old camera from the 1950′s. Film cameras have always been a bit of an adventure for me – although my first camera was film, it was a basic point-and-shoot that could think for itself. I didn’t really learn [...]
