Geeking out with toys in Denver
Last week I journeyed to cold, cold Denver to consult with Reverse Technology and Diana camera buff Mark Sink. We’ve known each other for years through this strange thing that is the toy camera community, and I knew I’d get lots of insights into my book by spending some time with him.
Indeed, it was a great visit. Granted, my area of specialty is a small niche, so to spend a few days in his gallery (www.gallerysink.com) surrounded by mounds of books and articles by the greats of the Holga and Diana was pure kid-in-a-candy-store joy!
I also was introduced to the wonders of iChat and instant messaging, which makes swapping images and links gleefully instantaneous, whether sitting at computers 10 feet apart, or halfway across the country!
I’m so glad to have so many wonderful people supporting me on this project (Mark & Mary Anne Lynch, especially), and I can’t wait to see what it ends up looking like!
