Rather than fight fatigue and time after work to make the 365 picture, today I left a bit early, and snapped a few frames before work instead. If the exif is to be believed, this was shot at 5:30:02am, but don’t believe the exif, as I always set clocks a few minutes fast, and the …

365.322 the iPhone succeeded where I failed
Note to self: don’t attempt unfinished ideas after working a 10 hour shift unless you already have a safety shot, or are not under pressure to produce a picture. I had an idea for the faucet challenge and spent my prime after-work shooting time setting up and failing (miserably, I might add) to capture the …

365.321 a strange commute
Feeling uninspired after a 9.5 hour shift of staring at computer screens and clicking mouse/keyboard buttons, I stared blankly around the apartment until my eyes fell on the spray bottle I used to train the cats when they were younger.

Woo. D7000. Vivitar 50mm f/1.8, reversed, …
365.318 LBC0
Well. Have I been in one pissed off mood today. Sheesh. I woke up miffed. By what, I have no idea. Had plans to have breakfast and visit the Arboretum this morning with Momma, so I woke up early (usual weekday time of 4:30a instead of usual weekend time of 5) to make sure I …
355.317 Serenity NOW (2)
I really shouldn’t nap after work. 9 times out of 10, I wake up feeling great, but the first person I come into contact with raises an aggravation that persists for the rest of the day. This usually doesn’t matter a whole lot, as I so rarely see any three-dimensional humans after work anyway, much …
