The air in Berkeley seems magical to me. It's moist with a mingling of scents from various flowers in bloom. My favorite is the night blooming jasmine. It brings back memories of growing up in Berkeley. We walked to College Avenue for dinner tonight, a walk I have done a thousand times and I never grow tired of it. It's beautiful and lovely and it's really all about the air that I am breathing flooding my memory of days gone by and forming new experiences at the same time.
There are parts of me that misses shooting film, like the element of surprise when a roll has just been developed. But I have found with digital that I am much more playful when I shoot because the results are immediate. Tonight I practiced walking and shooting at the same time.
I don't think I would ever want to live in a place, such as a sub-division, where there was nothing within walking distance. Our little town of Lafayette offers so much which makes it a wonderful place to live. Today we walked to Nicolai's music class.
