morning, Consumnes River Preserve
sunny, clear, warming
Lost Slough Wetland Restoration
Out exploring with Lisa-
Having technical problems, very distracting
Lousy day for shooting, wasn't sure if the problems were film or camera - highly suspect film since it's so inconsistent - problem like light leak in the camera would be the same every time.
Of course garbage in say, the shutter mechanism might float around and come and go like this.
Too bad I couldn't stop and pay attention to my surroundings - my own one-track mind just fretted on the problems.
Button bush swamp
One good neg in the middle of the film pack makes it seem to be man-handled film (so to speak - I am not always as careful as I should be.)
Actually water here now, which means year-round wetland habitat. The surrounding dryland is all dead grasses dotted by occasional valley oaks.
Temperature climbs and bug repellent seems to have worn off - our bodies are an easy target for many mosquitoes.
The shade is now the only place to be comfortable - mid afternoon has brought near 100 degrees, I'm sure, and the humidity is relatively high for us, making us feel the heat more.
New pack of film seems to have more problems - will have to test more later to determine what exactly problem is...
