7/52-46 nothing to see here

Deepest apologies. Early in the week, probably Sunday, Hana and I went for a walk around the boring corporate apartment complex in which we live, purely for exercise. On the way out the door, I said “I’m going to be optimistic” and grabbed the D7000 and Nikon 36-72mm E Series. While out, we gathered a …

7/52-45 black & white & hipstamatic all over

With the release of new film & lens filters comes (not much) responsibility to test them out and report findings… I’ve wanted to do a black & white week again for some time, and I thought I’d found my chance when the Long Island hipstapack (with BlackKeys Extra Fine film & Florence lens) appeared last …

7/52-44 Cloudy, with a chance of…

Alhamdulillah! I spent the week playing with the Vivitar 70-210, but didn’t spend much time playing with it: still far too wrapped up in being married: Alhamdulillah! Not much else to say, really. Life is wonderful. D7000. Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5 (Kiron-made, likely). I took a bunch in macro mode, but all of these were shot …

7/52-43 let’s make this a test…

Ok. So I shot a bunch of randomness this week with the iPhone and the D7000+Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G. Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to identify which of the pictures came from the phone, and which came from the camera. I’ve made it a bit easier by including 3 Hipstamatic shots, so …

7/52-42 busyness continues

Oh so very busy this week. I intended to shoot the bulk of the 7/52 at the State Fair photowalk with one of the MeetUp groups I’ve been to busy to meet up with for months, but I worked from home for 12 hours instead. Thankfully, I played around with the Hueless app for 4 …

7/52-41 Eating & Drinking

This married life is keeping me wonderfully busy: Alhamdulillah! I don’t know if I mentioned this before or not, but for a week or so, I wondered why life got so much busier after marriage. After all, there are two people around to do the chores, go for groceries, and etc., and so shouldn’t there …

7/52-40 Roses and the Zomb-E

So two Thursday’s ago marked 4 weeks since Hana and I got married. (Alhamdulillah! (All praise and gratitude to God)) So I picked up a couple dozen roses and stuck them in an empty (and clean, mind you) pickle jar. (Until yesterday, we didn’t have anything appropriate for putting flowers in… but a trip to …
