waning eyesight

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Kokubunji, 2021.05.12

Over the past couple of mornings I've been going through some of my pics from the past few months. I'm discarding a lot of out-of-focus images, including some I really regret. My eyesight's gotten to the point where I'm not getting decent results from manual focus lenses.

I've never enjoyed auto-focus lenses. It may be time to hang it all up.

I feel fortunate that I enjoyed the blandishments of modernity. I had hip replacement and root canal. I was able to travel on airplanes. I was able to take cheap food for granted. I went to the movies. I enjoyed rock 'n' roll. And now I'm ready to move on.
