When I loaded this into the computer, my first thought was “That looks like a Jeff Koons painting!” I’m somewhat less sure about that now, but it does look painted, does it not? Well, it wasn’t. D7000. Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5 Series 1 (Kiron, maybe), in Macro mode. ISO100, 1/10th, f/3.5. Pop-up set in Commander mode, …

365.340 Olive
I haven’t posted a picture of one or another of the cats of late, so I thought today’s I’mreallynotquitefeelingit picture could remedy that. It’s not quite in focus, but I doubt Olive minds much, and sof-focus techniques tend to work rather well for such beautiful subjects. D7000. Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5 Series 1 (Kiron, maybe), in …
365.339 the beautiful prisoner
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.

365.337 yesterday’s was better, methinks
Well, I intended to make another ghostwalker attempt this morning, but I got a late start (by ~2 minutes or less), so I decided to try this again. I don’t know about you, but I think yesterday’s attempt was better. It’s not that I don’t like this one, and it’s closer to my vision, but …
365.336 an ordinary tap
I think I got it… I may still try again, but this one’s close. There could be a bit more separation between the stream and the arm behind it, and I could probably stand to minimize the bokeh balls that sort of distract from the stream at the bottom, but this is pretty close to …
365.335 phone’d in
Apologies for not putting more effort into today’s pic. After working 9.5 hours, I went and viewed an apartment I’m thinking of moving to (probably will move to), then went to the grocery store, and by the time I got home, it was time to make dinner. I spotted this nice light on the entryway, …
