My good friend vici (http://www.lomography.com/homes/vici) and I did this doubles project in New York City and Truckee. She did the original scan herself (http://www.lomography.com/homes/vici/albums/1839236-new-york-with-trw-doubles) and then sent the negatives to the lab for scanning. This album is the lab's scan. It's amazing how different people and scanners can make such a big difference in the look of the pictures. As always, vici did incredible work and I get to share in the result. Lucky me!
As I spent more time with her, my love for her grew, matched only by her apathy for me. But I didn't care, she was special and she made me feel special. She was popular in a way I could never have imagined. Just walking on grass felt like being on the red carpet and people came to my home day and night. I flattered myself it was me that drew them but I knew deep down they only sought a glimpse of her. She imbued even the most mundane with a surreal beauty and I envied her...envied her and loved her.
I felt like I knew her now, at least as well as one could. She was sensitive yet easy to be with, not the fickle, high maintenance girl I'd imagined. She always forgave my clumsiness. I understood that she had others, she gave her love so freely, so innocently, that I couldn't be jealous. I was happy to visit them and try and catch a glimpse of her. After all I knew, somewhere in the back of my mind, that she was as transient as life itself, and when she was gone, she would be gone forever.
