Is this what climate change looks like? It’s currently 74 degrees fahrenheit, and I’ve been in shorts and flip flops since I woke up this morning, because it was over 50 when I woke up. For someone that likes it cold, this isn’t quite cutting it, and weather like this worries me. Anyway, it’s a …

365.353 a popular post
I’ve been in full out expunging and packing mode all day today, and I lost the last bit of motivation and interest in just about anything about 2 hours ago. So it’s a good thing I noticed this popular post on the way to Giant Electronics Store, quickly pulled out the phone and grabbed a …
365.352 a very welcome PITA
Apologies for the sorta halfarsed attempt today. I’m still worn out from activities and frustrations of previous days, and even more so after the hour it took me to travel home after work (vs the 25 or 30 it usually takes). The delay was due to wet roads, which are something of a novelty around …

For the first 8 shots of a picture-making session that should’ve taken maybe 3, maybe, I finally …

And another day of just not feeling it… There was frost on the car this morning, and I shot it, but with rather poor results, and by the time I figured it out, I had about 40 minutes left to shoot, edit, and share before dinner, and you know how I just _have_ to finish …
365.348 ugly bokeh, an attempt
Simon Davis-Oakley—one of the curators of the 365 project and community over on G+—created this assignment (sort of) on the G+ 365 Community pages. The assignment, should we choose to accept, was to shoot a 365 pic with foreground and background bokeh, and it followed a brief question and longer explanation of ‘Bokeh’ that took …
