New Years Photography Resolutions 2013

Getting Back in the Saddle again in regards to shows and gallery submissions.  Easier now that the Dark room is done.  And yes I did just barely get to print something in the darkroom before the end of the year!

That was my number one resolution for 2012.  So how did I do with the rest?

• Darkroom done and first prints made (as Christmas Presents).
• I got the SRT-101
• Participated in Worldwide Pinhole Day and got inspired to do more pinhole work-but decided not to invest in a 4X5 Pinhole camera.

But:

• No Progress on the Family Project- I need to build a UV light box.  No longer inspired by true sun printing; it is just to hard to calibrate.
• Missed the Winter Solstice Solargram opportunity, but still hopeful of catching the Spring Equinox?
• Somehow have misplaced my slides from Norway and Africa.  Where are they?  Sundays Overseas will return once I find them.
• Not so interested in 4X5 Camera, which is odd now that I have a professional grade 4X5 enlarger;  Go figure!

Not on the list but certainly accomplishments:

• Congratulations to Bill M who won the Calendar Sweepstakes!
• Calendar 2013 Completed and Distributed.
• Christmas Road Trip producing tons of photography to share in the coming year

Upcoming for 2013 and Beyond:

• Print, Print, Print in the Darkroom!
• Build the UV Lightbox
• Find those Africa and Norway Slides!
• Play with More Caffenol
• Test drive a Graflex Speed Graphic Camera.  Donald thinks he wants one and a friend has one that we can try.  Apparently alfred Steiglitz used a Graflex.
• Still Planning (i.e. saving up) for the Mamiya 6X7 Panorama Camera.

And I received the perfect Christmas Gift for a Camera Nerd:
