I’d like to have a better title for this—something about the dark and scary forest in which live all manner of unicorns and rainbows and fluffy bunnies and whatnot, perhaps—but I couldn’t really come up with anything, and I have very little to say about it at all, other than ‘here it is!’ D7000.

I had a hard time arriving at a 365 shot today… over 100 pictures made, 50 deleted before reaching the computer even, and the rest a big bunch of meh. I’d still be shooting, but it’s dinner time and I can’t stare at screens any more today, so this will have to do. I think …

After yesterday’s Happy Accident, I decided to try to get one On Purpose, and I must say that the Happy Accident turned out better, and was much easier to recognize as ‘shot-of-the-day’ than this one. Of course, it didn’t hurt that the Happy Accident was the only picture I took yesterday, but it screamed “I’m …
365.140 a Happy Accident
While speeding to work this morning (I wasn’t running late, just speeding), I came up on an suv of some sort, and the light coming off of its spinners was AMAZING. So I slowed down, whipped out the camera, popped off the lens cap, pointed it, and tripped the shutter… But a D7000 in AP …
