I really expected to be frantically trying to find something to shoot for the 365 about now, but (and thankfully) I decided to check and see if any of the run-grab-the-camera-before-the-nice-neighbor-lady-freed-the-trapped-butterfly grab shots grabbed my attention… Exactly one was in focus. Exactly one had a reasonable composition. Given this was shot by prefocusing on the …

365.351 missed it by that much
Best laid plans… I was wrapping up the last bit of work today when I got a simple question from the boss. While I was typing up a simple reply to the simple question, I received a request for some metrics from my team. I sent of the simple reply to the simple question and …
365.275 menacing
Ok. I admit it. This was a mistake. The Vivitar 70-210 is too long and too fat to get out of the way of the pop-up flash on the D7000. This didn’t cross my mind when I walked out the door with the camera and the intent to make a shot similar to this, one …

365.210 I Will Do Better

7/52-18 Reflections & Roses
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 …
7/52-09 reflections
It started when I noticed some leaves reflected in the window of the open door. Out came the LX7, which captured the scene nicely-enough, but I wanted to shoot the D7000 and some manual lenses, so back went the LX7, and out came the D7000 and Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5. The interaction between the eye/brain and …
