Had Christmas with Momma today, and got exactly what I asked for: a LensBaby Muse with a plastic optic… Can you say ‘Bokeh?’ Wow. The little toy is sure hard to focus, but wow! is it ever fun to play around with! I’m looking forward to getting lots more use out of the Muse. (And …

Find a Penny, Pick it Up, and All the Day, You’ll Have Good Luck! I don’t know if that applies to these pennies, which have seen far, far better days. I may try this again at some point, and make these pennies more imposing, have them hover over something, like the coming of the aliens …
Hipstamatic Disposable update 6 – the failure that was the BlacKeys 44 camera
You might have noticed the complaint about saving speed and the misleading “Saved!” pop-up that I copied and pasted into the four updates to this series that I posted today. If not: DO NOT BELIEVE THE ‘SAVED!’ POP-UP THAT POPS UP WHEN YOU TELL HIPSTAMATIC D TO SAVE A CAMERA ROLL TO THE CAMERA ROLL!!! …

Hipstamatic Disposable update 3 – the D-Lite camera
Here is a full roll from the Hipstamatic D-Series D-Lite camera. I really like the color saturation and slight brown tint this camera offers, but the light leaks are a bit much in many cases, so I’ll be using this camera with the slider all the way to the left in the future. (BTW: the …

Hipstamatic Disposable update 2 – the D-Fault camera
Well, it took awhile, but I finally shot through another group of Hipstamatic D-Series cameras. These shots came out of the D-Fault camera. I like the border, and can see whipping this camera out in certain situations. The color saturation and contrast is interesting, and I’m pretty sure this would make for some fun snapshots. …
