At Mission San Juan Bautista 


Statue #2

Actually, I'm not really happy with the way this roll turned out. Part of the problem is that the batteries on the Pentax MX packed up (again--after only a week!) and I had to use the L-508 meter. As good as it is, the hand-held meter doesn't see quite the same way the Pentax does, so I need to root through my notes on exposure from this roll and have an adjustment cheat-sheet handy for next time. As I remember, I also was battling with light that day. I'd meter and compose a shot only to have the sun either come out from behind the clouds or suddenly hide behind them.

Oh well...at least it's not like I fucked up an entire roll (or 10) of film shot in a faraway land or something. I can go back to the mission and re-shoot one of these weekends.
