So I played around with the zoomy-flashy thing again today. It was in large part an exercise in meh, but there remains something of interest about it. In this example, we have Ivan, who is likely looking at his sister or his food or, perhaps, a bug. But if you look very closely, there are …

365.244 what the!?!
Another day, another attempt at capturing the cats at play, another day they refuse to cooperate. Jerks. So I took the camera to them. Ivan is not perfectly in focus here. I have great difficulty estimating distances, and would normally have just used f/8 or f/16 and not bothered, but I wanted to blur the …
365.237 closing time
I might be sortof on to something here… I was trying (unsuccessfully) to do a bit of light painting with the Zomb-E Series and some small LED lights and the laser pointer I used often in Grad school, but now serves as the world’s most adored (or hated, depending on who you ask) cat toy… …

365.20 Ivan vs. the LensBaby
I was feeling a bit worn out, creatively speaking, and had no idea what I wanted to shoot for the 365, so I strapped on the LensBaby and forced myself to shoot around. And I ended up with this nice shot of Ivan, and it marks two firsts for the 365! 1) it’s the first …
