All I have to say is I was really off that night. A lot of blurry pics from too low a shutter speed. So that’s why the coverage isn’t as good as it should be. <br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0001.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0002.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0003.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0004.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0005.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/velvet_monkey_opening/16th_st._friday/1167/0006.jpg” alt=”Photos” />

These pictures are all from the raddest ride kickoff/fundraiser ever. Stuart, Pat and Cameron are heading across the country on the <a href=”http://broquest.com/“>Broquest</a> (link goes to their site). This is why film sucks sometimes; I’m just now getting the pics from their out of town party up and they’re already three states into their Portland to Portland run. Oh well.<br /><br />The Dudes of America played, and they’re a bunch of rockstars. I’m too lazy to caption, you can figure it out. That and I’m blogging while flying down the highway. wah-hoo.<br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0001.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0002.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0003.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0004.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0005.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0006.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/brofest/1169/0007.jpg” alt=”Photos” />

So I’ve finally gotten my film developed, and the first batch is just some random photos. There was another roll of old film I found in a drawer, and I think at least one of these is from that. It’s really weird and difficult to be working with files scanned from film automatically. I can’t adjust exposure or white balance or any of that good stuff. Oh well, at least they’re better than nothing. I can’t wait until I get a new body in though. <br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/random/1170/0001.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/random/1170/0002.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/random/1170/0003.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/random/1170/0004.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/random/1170/0005.jpg” alt=”Photos” />

So I’ve been doing stuff and seeing things, but the reason I haven’t been posting that much is this:<br /><br /><img class=”photo” src=”https://images.matt.pictures/lack_of_posting_(and_why)/1171/film.jpg”><br /><br />That’s almost a week’s worth of shooting. I know, I know, that’s not a lot, but it will make for about a week’s worth of posts, once I get around to developing it. I’m waiting on some money from a lens I sold. (With my canon body out of commission, I didn’t need the 24-105 any more, so it went on ebay and sold quick).<br /><br />Meanwhile, there was a race yesterday, Bike Against Hunger the First, which was pretty cool. Kudos to Ken for putting it together and for all the rad prizes. Cody won, and I’d swear he rode up to my checkpoint on one wheel. He was there and gone in about 10 seconds. Yeah though, if you ever get the chance to work a checkpoint, bring a sign and a nice chair. A beverage and a book are optional but the book probably saved my sanity, i just wished I’d had the rest of that stuff. That, and it’s impossible to run a checkpoint and take pics of the checkpoint at the same time. It’s one or the other. <br /><br />OK, I’m going to save the rest for another day, because there are a lot of stories to tell, and a lot of pictures that go with them, so rather than mix things all about, I’ll just wait until I can get the pictures, and then tell the stories.
