Yesterday I spent the afternoon watching Hitchcock classics. I had seen Vertigo many years ago and really enjoyed seeing it again. To my surprise I discovered that I had been taking pictures of the same scenery without even realizing it. Mission San Juan Bautista is one of my favorite spots but I never associated the church until I saw it yesterday. It was fascinating to see how little the area has changed. As I watched Kim Novak walking through the gardens it dawned on me that I had taken the same steps not too long ago - minus the jump from the bell tower of course... LOL
This gave me ideas for a new photographic project which I cannot wait to start. I would talk more about it as I start developing it. Next week will be devoted to job interviews. I have an exciting prospect in San Francisco. The company is an extremely progressive and dynamic enterprise that really emphasizes on a work/life balance. I really like that they devote part of their profit, equity and time to the community and value their employees. The benefits and perks not to mention the salary are incredible. I would have to travel by train for 45 minutes each way, but the rest really overshadows this minor discomfort. Today for the first time in a long time I really feel like the old me. I see the beauty around me again.
