DOZING in Postcards 4

I was thinking a little while ago that Paul would probably be appalled that I am editing his images. He thought I was useless in photography. He has four children who could do this, but I am the one with the doing. Yesterday I worked on this picture. It is two of the men from Padua in “Kiss Me Kate” singing their hearts out. This came out quite well with pure white, blacks and all sorts of grays to be seen. I’m pleased.

This photograph was matted and it appears it was part of his portfolio when he applied to Art Center School in LA. Time has not treated it kindly. Not only has damp crept up at the bottom, but so has its cousin mold. Yesterday, I trimmed off the damaged matt in Photoshop, but I left the damage in the picture itself.

Today I went back to that image of Jack singing. The biggest problem I have is that I keep dozing off while working here. I dozed off over breakfast too. I did the same thing yesterday. George is better and is off working on his trial box at the Maker Place. He’s on vacation. I doze.

• Myself: I’ve been reading some of the sites on Dark Roasted Blend between snores. (The link is in the bottom grouping over on the right.) Very abstract stuff.
