The Lady in the Window  

I don’t know which one is more futile to hunt!  Taryn is knocking herself out looking for a new home for us, and it just seems like it takes an excessive amount of time and effort.  It feels like she’ll like a place and I won’t, or I’ll like it and she won’t, or we both will like it… but it will have a “fundamental flaw” that neither of us want to deal with.  It would be nice to catch a break sometime soon. 

Speaking of breaks, I was able to replace my broken camera late last week.  I’m now shooting with a Canon 30D, which is proving to be a pretty sweet rig.  It’s got all the features of my dear departed 20D plus a few useful extras, like a larger LCD, a smaller spot-meter, and both luminance and RGB histograms.

IMAGE: A local restaurant closed a while back and the space sits vacant.  Normally the blinds would be drawn or the windows covered by paper, but they’re not, and this statue stands facing a busy street.  While I can see the “Christmas Story Leg Lamp” humor, my first impression is one of melancholy.
