1977? Yep. 1977. Of course, I wasn’t alive then* but I have an idea that this shot of the pin screen has some resemblance to a fancy beaded curtain in an upscale club somewhere… Maybe? D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, Reversed, on 48mm of extension tubes. ISO1600, 1/20th, f/3.5. Altered with Topaz Labs’s Adjust …

365.64 Agoraphobia
A brilliant idea for the 365 shot popped into my about 7:50am. It stewed all day. At 4:15pm, it was finally time to shoot. I set the D7000 up on the tripod, removed the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 that pretty much lives on the camera (when I’m not shooting macro 365 shots, which pretty much means …
365.63 Pinkeh
I had designs on having some more multifun today, but I ended up liking this test shot the best… D7000 and Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, Reversed, on 28mm of Extension Tubes (New!): ISO400 (forgot to reset it, again…), 1/200th, f/3.5, SB700 with its CTO filter installed at 1/16th power, about 18 inches away camera …

365.60 …Lest the Flames Consume Me
So I made some modifications to the CerealBoxStripBox(tm) last night: added a detachable snoot to help aim the strip a bit better. I’ll probably need to make a new one when I finish the next box of cereal, as this one has a few issues with spillage that are rather bothersome. Anyway. I was planning …
365.59 Abstraktes Bild
Sorry to keep dumping mere abstractions out, and for not bothering to come up with fun and witty titles… I keep most of my lenses on the desk between the keyboard and monitor. Most of them get reasonably regular use. I’ve used all of them in the 365 at least twice, except for one lonely …
