A brilliant idea for the 365 shot popped into my about 7:50am. It stewed all day. At 4:15pm, it was finally time to shoot. I set the D7000 up on the tripod, removed the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 that pretty much lives on the camera (when I’m not shooting macro 365 shots, which pretty much means …

365.63 Pinkeh
I had designs on having some more multifun today, but I ended up liking this test shot the best… D7000 and Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, Reversed, on 28mm of Extension Tubes (New!): ISO400 (forgot to reset it, again…), 1/200th, f/3.5, SB700 with its CTO filter installed at 1/16th power, about 18 inches away camera …
365.62 Pinned
Well, this marks the 290th post to this website… Not a huge milestone, but it also marks the 10,000th photo with the D7000 since… I’m not sure when. Maybe since I purchased the camera in June or July 0f 2011, maybe since I updated the firmware in October (that couldn’t be right… except I was …
365.60 …Lest the Flames Consume Me
So I made some modifications to the CerealBoxStripBox(tm) last night: added a detachable snoot to help aim the strip a bit better. I’ll probably need to make a new one when I finish the next box of cereal, as this one has a few issues with spillage that are rather bothersome. Anyway. I was planning …
365.58: the Outtakes
Outtakes from yesterday’s 365 shoot… Many are multiple-exposures, some are accidents, and most show strong evidence of the 75-150mm E Series and its notorious zoom creep. I’m not sure what I expected from having the camera in such a strange orientation, but the 75-150 will be forever (if lovingly) known as ‘The Creeper.’ I fired …
365.58 Abstraktes Bild
Well, I could write a novel about today’s shoot, or I could just post the shot and its general setup notes… There are about 15 interesting shots from today, some purposeful (like this one), some entirely accidental, and I started with a rather insane setup, so I may make an outtakes post later tonight or …
365.57 Ohne Titel (and a friend…)
I made 150-odd photos today, trying (in vain) to capture a macro version of yesterday’s optical illusion with the crayons. I got some interesting-enough shots, so groovy. All were shot with the D7000, Nikon 75-150mm E Series, Reversed, on 49mm of extension tubes, and at ISO100. The runner up (see below) was taken from about …
