I voted in the primaries today.

For many of us, it was a moment in history.

For many of us, it was a first time ever being able to have a voice in this country. Not just a whisper, but a deafening shout.

For many of us, this year will mark the first time we turned our televisions permanently to CNN and watched into the wee hours of the morning, the first time we logged onto candidates’ websites and really read what their stance on issues are, the first time we actually FELT the stirring of possibility, of CHANGE, move in our hearts and minds.

For me, it was all of those things, some experienced first hand, some experienced vicariously.

For all of us, this year marks an awakening.

today there was a beaaauuuuutiful sunset. I shot it through the window screen as it was setting:

annnnnnnnnd…..*drumroll* this is Behemoth, my large format camera:

to be fair, I have shot a few photos with Behemoth, I just haven’t developed the film yet because I have to find a light-tight box to store the exposed shots I got. sooooon though.

ooh, and I’m getting a newwwww (well, old, really, but new to me!) twin lens reflex, a Yashica 44 LM. It uses this really hard to find film, but I’m uber-excited about it, and I’ll be even more excited when it arrives (ebay, y’all). I’m really interested in familiarizing myself with as many formats as possible in photography, and shy away from digital for the times when immediate delivery isn’t a priority.
