I shot this indoors, with multiple lights on, at 4:02pm, 8 March 2012, in Dallas TX. It is completely overcast in Dallas today. I do not own a telescope. What I do own is an old, slightly scratched (and rather dusty, apparently) magnifying glass, a Nikon 75-150mm E Series, a Nikon 36-72mm E Series, a …

365.70 Forced Engagement
I had some FUN this afternoon! Whee! I won’t go into it right now, as I’m a bit pressed for time, but I will do a full write up with lots more pictures later soon. If not later tonight, then probably sometime over the weekend. But here’s a hint: D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, …
365.69 Drive-By iPhoneography
Am I cheating by submitting an iPhone photo, hastily (read: not at all) composed while (not quite) doubling the speed limit on an exit ramp? Maybe, but I’m doing it anyway. This was shot with ProCamera, my current camera-replacement app of choice. Since I was driving and pretty much spraying-and-praying that I could catch these …
365.68 Striations
I sorta ran out of time today… Shot a bunch of random stuff, and this (sadly) was the most interesting of the lot. Oh well. D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series. ISO100, 3 seconds, f/11, mixture of afternoon light and tungsten, neither particularly close by.
365.67 Rip, Torn
I shot for 5 straight hours today, and didn’t start cursing a single time! Of course, I also didn’t get the shots I was hoping for (for another project), but I did get this. D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, ISO100, 15 seconds, f/16, all natural light.
365.66 Proof of Concept (with outtakes)
So I used the Light Pipe I made earlier today to create a Beauty Dish-ish type of thing. The fresh (and really bad) haircut didn’t do me any favors here, but this was really more of a proof-of-concept project than anything else. I didn’t take any in process shots. Apologies. But I just cut a …
The Light Pipe
I’ve been back on my homemade trail mix kick of late, and picked up a container of Sunsweet Plum Amazins* to add to the mix this week. The chopped-prune raisin-type things are tasty enough, and will add a nice bit of sweetness (plus some fiber and nutrients) to the trail mix, but what I was …
