So I was pacing around looking for something to shoot, and decided to shoot Ivan, who was looking suspiciously at me (as usual) from his perch atop the cat tree. But what lens to use? The 24mm f/2.8 AI is nice and on the camera, but too wide. The 50mm f/1.8G is brilliant, but in …

365.250 Ohne Titel (something suggestive)
This was made for +Macro Monday, curated by Kerry Murphy, Jennifer Eden, and Kelli Seeger Kim, over at Google+. Today’s theme-within-a-theme is ‘Abstract.’ And I submitted this picture even though this is quite obviously a picture of something, rather than a ‘true’ abstraction. However, given that this ‘object’ (the photograph) is a collection of 1’s and 0’s graphically displayed on a …

365.249 reflections/clear blue sky
I went on an impromptu photowalk this afternoon (more pictures to follow), and got some pretty OK results, I think. I’ll tell more of a story when I post the full album here in a few minutes. In the mean time… D7000. Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G. ISO100, 1/1000th (ApMode), f/4.5. Some straightening, and a tiny bit of …
365.248 disoriented

So I shot some pictures of the wires behind the computer, and liked this one, with no identifiable structures or forms much better… GoGo, I guess? D7000. Nikkor …
365.247 tilt-a…
So the North Texas Photography Explorers MeetUp Group and the Dallas Photography MeetUp Group met up for a joint MeetUp tonight to shoot streaking taillights, ’cause everybody needs a streaky taillight shot, right? Right?!? Right?!?!?!?!? Indeed. So this is the most disorienting one I made. I wish I’d taken the 10-24. But last weekend at the …
365.246 dream of flight
So I shot a bit on the way home today. I didn’t get anything good, except for this shot, which isn’t particularly brilliant or anything, but appeared to have some possibilities, so I started playing around. If you look closely, there’s a strange sort of border or frame around this. This comes courtesy of a …
365.245 Ohne Titel
I came up with several brilliant titles for this, each more evocative than the last. But in the end, you’re the one looking at it (or, more likely, not), and so you’re the one that gets to title it. Is it a magic crystal from one or another of the video games, books, stories, movies, …
