Hello everybody. Been away for quite a while. It hasn't been so much the business of grad school, its more I don't have internet at my apartment. I will admit though, I've been working hard all last week. I'm taking this week off from school; so last week I ws stressing to get all my work in.
I am now typing from Moberly, Missouri. The Missouri Photo Workshop is in full swing. I am a volunteer working as a printer. That means I print out contact sheets for the instructors, and photos for a gallery exhibit at the end of the week. I am currently working on tiling (an image divided into quarters combined to make on big image). When not printing, I get to sit in on faculty presentations and listen to their perspective on photography.
Moberly is a small Missouri town half an hour North of Columbia. This is the real Missouri. Columbia is a college town, so there is somewhat of a variety in entertainment options. In contrast, Moberly is dead. Very few restaurants and the main drag is three blocks. The Moberly Tourism Counsel fed us last night. There are about 100 people (including participants, volunteers and staff) involved in the workshop. We should rule this town.

And we who live in this little town of Moberly out in the middle of nowhere, like it that way, Aaron. We do have our bright spots, perhaps you were too busy printing pictures to really discover them and appreciate them. Nevertheless we did enjoy a brief moment of fame when all of you came to town with your cameras and hope you captured at least one photo that will earn you recognition as a photographer someday. :)
