New roads and new choices

Where will they lead us, all the roads that can be chosen? I have to make a turn in life, choose new roads but I wish I didn´t have to.. You can´t see what´s ahead of you but you may have a safe picture of what you think the future will look like. Then one day something happens that changes that pictures and suddenly that road is closed so you have to take another road..that can be scary. For me it is anyway..

This picture may not look that scary but it is a road at least. I did not take this road, I just took a picture of it with my Yashica-Mat 124 and Kodak Ektar.

First MX roll developed!

Yes! This feels great! Today I went back to my local photo store to get my developed fuji-roll back and I was really happy to see some images on the negatives. That means there are no major errors in the camera body so I was really excited to get home and scan the film.

There has been quite some time since I scanned some film in my scanner so there were a lot of dust and stuff there even though I tried to blow away most of it. I have not tried to be super-artistic in these shots, it was more like a "test-roll" to see if the camera and light meter work as it should. And to my big joy, it did! Everything looks great, even though the pictures was not my best.

I have one shot that I really like from ths roll and I´m going to show it to you. I use a Canon CanoScan 9000F, which is some kind of amateur-scanner but it is ok for now because  can´t afford a better one..It makes some kind of weird lins over my pictures, hard to explain but it tsakes some time to fix in Photoshop Elements 8, that I use. Sometimes I can´t save the shot so I have to re-scan it until it get´s better..very annoying...

Ok, here´s the shot from my first roll of film in my newly aquired Pentax MX:
