weaving walnut-dyed coffee filters and zip loc bags
into mountains, rivers, houses and meadows
and I was excited to tell you about it.
Indeed, I've been taking pics all along the way,
both to remind myself of what I did when,
and so I could share them here.
after transferring said photos to my computer,
I discovered that Apple,
in its wisdom
(and endless desire to make our lives easier, don't cha know),
had,
without asking,
converted all my photos to some new
(and oh so efficient),
format
that Weebly,
my website/ blog builder
cannot read.
(for some reason it left the photo two up as a jpg. Why? Maybe because it was out of focus?).
I could turn this new feature off for future photos
(though of course the device urged me not to),
which is how I managed to take
the pics you see here.
But all of this has annoyed me more than I can say.
so I think
instead of downloading and learning
some OTHER new app
that will allow me to transform all my other photos
(the ones they automatically changed),
back into a form I can use,
so I can do what I originally planned--
which was to wax poetic
about the delicate process
of making yarn
from annual reports
and coffee filters--
I will go back to the loom
and transform
dead leaves
into sky.
