RAW (e): Lamps
I’m in the airport right now waiting to board. On my way to the terminal, after dropping off my rental car, two guys on the rental car shuttle struck up conversation. It turns out they were going to be on the same flight and were trying to determine how full the flight might be. Conversation then turned to my purpose for being in California…

First assumption, I must live in the Sacramento area and be flying back to school (tons of colleges in my home town). Their jaws literally dropped when I said I’d been out of school for nearly six and a half years (yeah yeah, I’m still young). I followed that up with, yeah, I’m 28. They couldn’t believe it. 

They then asked what I was doing out here. I told them my profession. They went back to my age and shared with me that I looked no older than 20. Granted, I had just changed out of my professional attire. I mean, who really wants to fly the “red-eye” wearing a skirt. BUT, do I really look like I’m 20 years old. Just thought I’d share that with you while I wait.

In other news, there was some discussion on whether or not I would bring my “big camera” to California. Well, I did…and, I didn’t use it. Instead, I took a few cloud shots on my flight out and the above “lamp” shot with my point and shoot. The shot above is RAW. In this case, I shot JPG and although I re-sized in Roxio PhotoSuite (the only editing program I have available on my work laptop), I didn’t do anything else…not even my watermark.

Next week’s challenge is “vintage.” With that said, I’m shutting down…boarding…and going back to sleep. Leave me some love and I’ll be back in the morning to blog hop and return your comments. Good night. 

PS: For all those challenges I may have missed this week, don’t give up on me just yet…I should be back in full effect next week!
