Don't know where I heard that term recently but I thought it was a funny word mashup. Yes the rumors are true, I am shooting again after a surprisingly lengthy break. Turns out that beyond getting past the apathy, ennui, and inertia, the trick is simply to have a loaded camera on hand. I guess I knew that but forgot it somewhere along the way.
I even developed my first rolls of film in what I can hardly believe has been such a long time, judging by the date on the chemicals. The first roll took embarassingly long to do, the second was just like riding a bicycle. Now to print :)
What I shot this weekend was my older Nikon with the Novoflexar, I can't believe I've never taken it for a spin. Great lens for shooting kids playing sports (soccer!), at least it seems so, I'll see when I get the film developed. Half a roll to go, but it feels good to be back in the saddle again.*
(*More Aerosmith, less Gene Autry.)
I'll bore you another time with the tale of the confluence of events that lead to the long break. In the meantime I've got the camera eye back, and film thawing.
