I had planned a "proper" PAW for today, but now I can't. It looked cool in the viewfinder, fine on the neg on a light table under a loupe, but when I got the 8x10 back today, I had to file it under "what the hell was I thinking?!?"
Sigh... But, I also got back a roll I took at the beach with the kids a couple of weeks ago. We went to Sandbanks Provincial Park, near Kingston, Ontario, Canada. Lovely place: natural sand dunes right around where Lake Ontario empties into the St. Lawrence River. It's quite a large place, and we beached at a spot where a sand dune of several hundred feet falls right into the water - the beach is only about 5 or 6 feet wide between the sand dune and the water (which was pristine and a perfect temperature). There were a bunch of teenagers there who had set up an inflatable mini-tramp, and were running at top speed down the dune (half falling, mostly out of control), then jumping onto the trampoline and into the water. They looked like they were having a great time, as were the spectators. I snapped a few, including this one: http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3631907&size=lg Comments are always encouraged and appreciated.
