There are only three answers to prayer— yes, no and wait.
Though the night may come too soon
We have years and years of afternoon.

This beauty came via FedEx today —$140.00 + $44.28. Very impressed with ebay’s Global Shipping Programme. It took just 10 days from Barboursville, Virginia, United States, from the time I made payment (on October 14)!
The outside has been cleaned, but not the inside. Packaging was done very well. But some “typewriter-specific” packaging would’ve been nice, such as stuffing some paper to prevent the typebars from moving.
But it came with the manual and key, which was a really nice touch. The case was also in good condition.
Check out the pink version here.
Bought daisies from the market yesterday. Today, I learnt how to take macro shots with the x70 using manual focus with MF Assist. It is still not as sharp as I would like, but still, I find it pretty impressive for the x70.
Then I learnt about Lightroom:
The healing tool, Split toning, keywording
I would like to download some free profiles or presets.
Still confused about Lightroom (I think they’ve just updated and removed CC from the name). All the profiles are missing.
Before that, I tried to fix the sticky keys on the Traveller de Luxe, with spotty success.
So important to keep close watch on what I am doing with my time.
