Where did it go?

Adam and Loafer, Hull Mass, August

Luke's SunRoom, Allston Mass, August

Garland Texas, July

DFW morning, Texas, July

Here are four images from the Summer of Sundays chapter that I am presently working on(with?); printing, editing, scanning and thinking abouts. Where did you go summer? It felt like all dog days with a bit of Texas heat.
Sorry about the lack of posts. About six weeks ago I started working a (terrible) retail job to pay the bills and live . (I shouldn't complain with the unemployment rate edging towards 10%.) So I am learning to balance working for $$$s and working for my art. Still shooting, printing once or twice a week and looking at work by other. It is just the digital work I have no attention for esp. when i get off of work. I am sure this will change in the winter when I will be more inclined to stay in and drink wine.
I also started TAing at Nesop for 2nd year color, the class is fabalous, they keep me excited about photography.
Alec Soth (rhymes with both) gave lecture "The Democratic Jungle" at Mass Art on Monday evening. I enjoyed that he gave stories behind some of his work/life and also talked about the present conditions of photograhy in the world of flickr and the dying print meduim. He was handsome and human and I should have taken notes.

is this going to be forever?

Schools out. Family is gone. I have time for my thoughts. Oh God.
Here are a few new photos from the last weeks of school and graduation:

And Miss Tibbetts

I need to buy a new scanner, the one I have was given to me for free maybe 4 or 5 years ago, before I knew anything about scanning. Drug store prints are getting too expensive for my tight budget. But I have to say that one of my favorite things to do is dig through boxes of old photographs. You know those photo album rejects that everyone's parents have hidden away in the closet. Mmmm.
I'm still working on my summer plans, I just wish it would stop raining.
