I got into the Steddie BB. The author limit was hit within a few hours and there's a waitlist, so I was right to plan to submit right when it opened. Now to see if this was a good idea or a bad idea and why are so many people who got in 18 or 19? I don't think the intros are required so maybe the over 25 set is just doing it less?

Photo Mission - Art Vending Machine

Usually I find all my content by wandering. I have several reasons why I don't typically chase down things I've seen online. It's super common for photographers to just copy each other's photos in a weird, dysfunctional ouroboros. I could, and have, write very long essays on why that sucks and leads to massive online toxicity. But, I do have a list of locations where I am pretty sure I know the correct location that I do want to shoot someday. Some I haven't shot because it's 2 hours there and back. Some, it's a lighting and/or timing issue.

Right now I am making a hit list of locations, art where I am pretty sure I know the location and also reshoots of old pics I want to do. I may post the list at a point to show progress, but I am still building the list.

Yesterday was a field trip to a location that has been fussy to nail down time wise:



The new art vending machine keeps having a run on all it's stock. There were out of the adoptable Hedgehogs, collages and the pride earrings, so I got a scavenger hunt entry a little journaling set that I will keep in my camera bag:





I hope to stop by a few more times to get earrings or a collage.
