I think I’ve figured out why I’ve been so out of it, non-committed, and creatively stunted, this week… I gave up the nightly, after dinner candy binge a couple of weeks ago, which means I’ve had no candy in the apartment, which means I’ve had no candy immediately after arriving home (and after my afternoon …

365.221 Ohne Titel (700 Fail)
I got an early start on the 365 shooting today, messing around with food coloring again, when the SB-700 decided to do it’s periodic lock-up thing. Oh well. No big deal: power off (which appears to do nothing), pop open the battery door, wait a couple of seconds, close the battery door, power on, and …
365.251 Ohne Titel (a happy discovery)
So I was pacing around looking for something to shoot, and decided to shoot Ivan, who was looking suspiciously at me (as usual) from his perch atop the cat tree. But what lens to use? The 24mm f/2.8 AI is nice and on the camera, but too wide. The 50mm f/1.8G is brilliant, but in …

365.315 yep… they still need cleaning
I ran some errands after work, and by the time I got home, I’d lost any interest in shooting, so I laid down on the floor and started shooting random stuff: cat hair, a broken off belt loop that’s now a cat toy, the afternoon light on the blinds, the trees outside through the little …
365.323 Ohne Titel (at the Drive-In)
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 …
