Day 916

 

This place on Crows Landing Road is well known because of the patch of cactus. I stopped to get some pictures and this older gentleman gave me a tour. He loved the cactus and worked on a dairy near by. He also wanted me to take a puppy. There was a black female with white feet, which I almost took, but with three large dogs at home I was strong and did not take her.

My goal was to get photo of the man with the dogs, but he would not get close to them. Finally I got a shot. I was disappointed that he was so far away from the dogs, but happy they were in the same frame. I like it much more than I thought I would.

Day 915 Car on South Ninth Street Modesto

 

Day 914 Arlene

 

Arlene has been on this blog before. This film is about 10-12 years old.

Day 913 Appaloosa off of 99

 

I was driving home from Southern California when I spotted this appaloosa. Because I had film I got off the highway and snapped a few pictures. I found his owner and she invited me inside. She told me he had mean temperament and would not behave for the farrier. She didn't know what to do about him. I hope he landed in a decent place. 

Day 912 Guy on South Ninth Street

 

This is from the 38 rolls of 120 film I had processed. I'm going to upload one photo a day at least for a week or more. It was taken on South Ninth Street in Modesto. This guy was so nice and enjoyed being a model. His girlfriend didn't want her picture taken. 

Day 911 Mustangs

 

I had 38 rolls of 120 film processed and picked them up today. They were taken about 10-15 years ago when I was actively working on this blog. I don't have a scanner so I photographed the negative on a light table with my macro lens then invert the image in photoshop. This distorts it somewhat, since I am holding the camera. I don't mind. I like it. 

This image was taken at a mustang adoption event in Oakdale circa who knows... There will be more from this event to come.  I love this. I think I FINALLY figured out what I want to do photographically.
