from the West End Photowalk and Scavenger Hunt with the North Texas Photography Explorers MeetUp Group. I’ll have a longer discussion of today’s adventure in downtown Dallas—including a long-overdue review of the Tokina AT-X 35-200 f/3.5-4.5—later tonight (or more likely tomorrow sometime), for now, though, I’ll keep it short. Should you find yourself wandering south-east-ish on …

365.283 for lack
So I spent the whole day thinking about asking a woman I met last week to go do something friendly and nonthreatening (wander around a bookstore or something similar) with me this afternoon. Needless to say, I just thought about it. So about 3, after sitting pretty much in the same spot for roughly 11 …
365.274 Welcome to the Jungle
Well, today was the quarterly luncheon for the team I lead, so I ate a bunch of stuff that I don’t normally eat for lunch (or for any other meal, really). Guess what that means? As soon as digestion really got going, I developed a really bad mood: like an eff this, ima quit and …

365.138 Smear Campaign 2012
Insofar as I’m feeling wildly uninspired today, I decided to shoot one of the tiny little painting things I made in late 2011, in an attempt to relax and kickstart my creative juices after months/years of neglect. I wasn’t ever satisfied with the paintings much, but it was more an exercise than anything else. Anyway, …
365.113 Tokina & The Bee
I decided to take the Tokina out for this afternoon’s walk. We didn’t make it very far, as I wasn’t really feeling it, but I did get to play around with the Tokina’s close focus feature. There’s a little silver button down near the aperture ring: you push it in, give the lens barrel a …
365.110 Tokina vs. Squirrel
After a coin toss (Heads, Zomb-E Series; Tails, Tokina), I took the Tokina out for another stroll around the neighborhood. Together, we stalked this squirrel for a couple of minutes, and then shot a bunch of trees and flowers, and a bit of spray paint… I don’t know about you, but it looks to me …
