The deer are reappearing again. For a while we weren't seeing them, but yesterday we saw some. My dog must have been chasing them away before, but they are getting brave again. The picture on the left is cropped so you can see th deer better. I only wish I had a zoom lens that got that close. I have a lens for another brand of film camera from my grandpa, but I don't know if it will work with my new camera. It needs to be clean, too. Wow, I didn't plan on writing all that. Oh well.
^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old
Photography is so much fun. I have a telephoto lens, but I don't like taking pictures with it that much because it's so heavy. Then I blur the image because I can't hold it still. So I want one with image stabilization, and that's thousands of dollars.
