Is there something wrong with listening to Shattered so many times that I can now understand most all of the lyrics? Or does it matter? D7000. Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5 Series 1 (Kiron), in Macro mode at about 1:5ish, and handheld (that thing is heavy). ISO400, 1/20th (AP Mode… lazy), f/3.5. Minimal levels adjustment, and a boost to the …

365.166 Ohne Titel
So, a true macro shot finally coincides with Macro Monday, and I actually remember to tag it! What a pleasant confluence of events! I was really looking for a good line from Shattered, but nothing really worked with the image, so the good old Untitled will have to work. And if you hadn’t guessed, this …

Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 Zomb-E Series. ISO100, 4 seconds (AP Mode), f/3.5. Mild-to-medium adjustments in Aperture to bring out the bokehliciousity.
365.162 the panic at the carnival
Another storm, another opportunity to play with long exposures while flying down the highway in the wee hours… If I had more daredevil in me, I would’ve turned off the windshield wipers while the shutter was open, but I was nervous as it was, what with the wet roads and sprinkle and percentage of drunks …
365.161 june showers on silk flowers
After failing to capture the groovy clouds on the way home—from the window of the speeding Golf—I was gazing blankly off into space, trying to come up with an idea for a shot to make, when I noticed it was raining a bit. Nice. And then I noticed the pretty reflection of the fake flowers …
