(See Part I for more information) And so the adjustments began with my usual pulling back exposure, pumping black point, messing with brightness, and a slight tweak of the saturation, I decided to see what full desaturation looked like… nice, but missing something. So I returned saturation to its original point, and tried out various …

365.90 Part I: the Orignal
In honor of the 3 full Months I’ve been on this now, today’s 365 project comes in 3 parts… Part 1: the Original D7000. 24mm f/2.8 ai, reversed, on 104mm of extensions, and mounted on a GorillaPod and attempting to focus on the dust on the MacBook Pro, when I scooched when I should’ve leaned …
365.89 Abstraktes Bild
After making 150-odd pictures with the 24mm f/2.8 ai, reversed and on 104mm of extension, and having extreme difficulty with composition and framing, and cursing the quick grip ball head and its extreme lack of precision (and actually quite desperate for a wider angle), I went back to the old standby: the 75-150mm f/3.5 E …
365.88 Longboarding UTD
From the UTD Photowalk/Hipstamatic recipe test with momma this morning, and born out of much grinding of teeth and horrible fear, this photo was shot with Hipstamatic on an iPhone 4. I used the Loftus lens and Big Up film, and this kid knew I was shooting him. I stood in on spot, phone raised …
365.87 I prefer to believe that the birds like to have a little nip, time to time
from the Grapevine, TX photowalk. D7000, Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 ai, ISO100, 1/4000, f/2.8.
365.86 How’s my hair?
I’m feeling a sort of Doc Brown vibe here… And just not trying for two days in a row… Oh well. I’m feeling rushed and hurried, and for no good reason, and I’m taking it out on the 365 project. For shame. D7000. Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, reversed. ISO100, 2 seconds, f/8.
365.85 Gleam
Yes, it’s a bad title. And, yes, it’s a mediocre photo (at best). But I’m in a bit of a hurry today. Well, not a hurry, exactly, but this is all I can do today. I did find out that the 75-150mm E Series can achieve a reproduction ratio of 2.4:1 when reversed and stacked …
