As my blog readers know, I’ve been having some equipment problems recently. For Independence Day, however, my camera raised a flag and celebrated the long-overdue Unity — out of 446 photographs Friday (taken in about three hours of straight shooting), I kept 309, starred 185, and multi-starred 90.

Overwhelmed

…with goodness. The final “potentials” folder from Carey’s party is 239 photographs deep. Oh, [****]. “Everything finished and available by Tuesday,” as implied, will definitely be pushing it.
