The Dallas Photo Walk MeetUp Group (now defunct) met up at the Dallas Farmer’s Market yesterday. I wasn’t really feeling it, I didn’t think, but I ended up getting a couple of shots that I’m really happy with. The older gentleman with the cane is the first successful from-the-hip shot I’ve made. I loved the color of …

7/52-1 exploring light in the new apartment
So today begins my 7/52 project. What is a 7/52 project? It’s sorta like a cross between a 365 project (one picture every day for a year) and a 52 project (one picture per week for a year). The goal for the 7/52 is to produce 7 pictures per week (defined as the period beginning …

Chinese Lantern Festival Photowalk
Friday the 4th marked the first photowalk of the year with the Dallas Photo Walk MeetUp Group (and my first photowalk of the year, period).

365.359 the solstice sky
Well, in some sense, the world is going to end today… This is likely the last time I’ll take a picture of this particular sky. I’m moving tomorrow! Just across town, but still a different sky. And in the Heracleitian sense, the sky is never the same twice, as the clouds and winds and all the stuff …
365.358 too stressed
Ok. Adobe rant: I installed Lightroom last week. I haven’t started using it, but it’s on the computer. Apparently, when I installed and activated it, it deactivated or corrupted CS6, so when I went to make this panorama of the source of my stress, it told me I had 30 days left on my trial. …
