Another week of not really thinking about the 7/52. I tried, I really did, but there was so much other excitement going on that I couldn’t really focus. I’m working on a new schedule for my not-working time that will allow for some quality photography time, and hope to implement it this week. My success …

7/52-17 Cats! (and not cats…)
AKA One of these is not like the other Another week of not-really-focusing-on-shooting, and with very, very good reason that I’ll share sooner or later. I did manage to break off an hour or so on Wednesday, and another 15 minutes yesterday in order to make some pictures, and I’m thankful I got 7 that …
7/52-16 a day with the Vivitar 50mm f/1.8
Well, I definitely broke a cardinal rule of the 7/52 this week… I only shot for the project on one day. I could make excuses—and the ones I have would be convincing and you would likely give me a pass, given the terrifyingly fabulous week I had—but I won’t. Suffice it to say, I was …

7/52-15 LensBaby Week!!!1!
So I was pondering a theme for the week, couldn’t come up with anything better, so I decided it would be LensBaby Week. Yay. The LensBaby is a sort of toy tilt-shift lens with a pronounced sweet-spot (area of acceptable focus) and distinctive blur to everything else. I have the Muse with the plastic optic (no …
7/52-14 April Showers…
True to myth, April has been fairly rainy thus far, or was for two or three days this week. It’s a blessing here in North Texas, where we’re enduring a lengthy and moderate-to-severe (according to the National Drought Mitigation Center) drought, a curse to commuters, and a delight to my senses: the smell of ozone …
7/52-13 from where I sit (Hipstamatic vs. Plastica)
For this week’s 7/52, I decided to pit two toy camera apps against one another: Plastica, the relative newcomer, vs. the venerable Hipstamatic. For the most part, I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves and leave a proper review of Plastica for a time when I have more time to devote to it. First, though, …

7/52-12 subtle and/or vibrant
Seeing that it’s Springtime in North Texas, the week started warm-ish and cloudy, and ended cold and rainy… In between, though, the sky was blue, the birds were chirping, and there was color everywhere! Come Wednesday, I still hadn’t come up with a theme for the week, so I took a look in the cameras …
