First off, let me just apologize for the complete lack of a coherent theme, largely poor composition, and general lack of subject (beyond “pretty”). No excuses. Whew. Busy week. 10 and 11 hour meetings at work had me going in late and coming home later, which made for different lighting conditions than I’m used to …

7/52-27 phoning it in
aka one camera (app) one lens(/film filter) #2 It was a busy, stressful, and wildly exciting week for me, and I had no idea what I wanted to shoot, until I saw this picture from Instagram user @blumenkraft, and off I went! Much thanks to Jochen Spalding for this hipstarecipe, without which you’d likely be …
7/52-26 the carpark at dawn
I’m disappointed with my photographic output this week. I have some excuses, and they’re good ones, but I won’t put them forward.

7/52-24@24mm
I felt as if I didn’t do much shooting this last week, but when I loaded the week’s pictures into the computer, I found I shot almost every day, at least 9 or 10 pictures, so I guess I did alright, at least as far as whipping out the camera goes… That said, I didn’t …
7/52-23 Macro Week
Well, I shot more with the phone than with the big camera this week, and probably have a more coherent series there than here, but I started out the week with grand plans of going on lots of walks, shooting flowers and bugs around the neighborhood, etc., so even though I didn’t do any of …
