Sweater weather

Happy Friday and thank you all for your sweet comments on yesterday's post. And to those who commented for the first time - hello and it's so good to hear from you! I have been very lucky to have your support and kind words.

So the temperature dropped something like 30+ degrees in two days and I think we're all pretty excited to bust out the boots and blazers and scarves.

In very happy news, I have a properly working Canon film 35mm SLR again. I shot a test roll and here are two frames. Yay, no focusing issues! Well except for my own mis-focusing in some of them. I found the auto focus to be a bit flaky, which is odd because I think it's supposed to be better than on the digital system.

The Canon 1V is HEAVYYY. I mean with the 50mm f1.2 on it, I felt like I was carrying a hunk of bricks. I guess what's great about it is that it's weatherproof. I'll have to take her out during the next big storm we have. :)

    Fall is so exciting! I couldn't wait to wear boots again! Unfortunately, find good tights to match my dresses is the most difficult thing.

    I love that sweater/vest you're wearing in the self-portrait. Where did you find it?
