Photography

I have problems with my photographic course. I do not understand what the exercises mean. So each exercise is read through about four times and even then I am often unsure. Anyway the second assignment went through without the tutor throwing a tantrum because of this awful student. I am nearly at the end of the third section and, after a week of hard reading, I think I know what I have to do.

As light relief, I went to a bookbinding (Japanese) class last Saturday (see below) and stayed with Anne overnight. A bit of forethought there. I 'persuaded' her to act as a model for two exercises, then spent Sunday writing them up.


We made two books with quite different sewing techniques, one have never seen before.


And I have got the Schacht in complete order, woodscrews not longer slightly rusty and from my garage, back beam held down firmly. As a result, I have wound a warp, put it on, threaded it and have half sleyed it. I hope to finish tomorrow.

The one thing I have not managed to do is any gardening. Every  occasion when I have time to garden, it is raining. Things are getting urgent and I may just have to get wet.
