I was walking back from the first laundry run at the new apartment, looking for 365 possibilities, and I spotted the leaves on the left. 4 shots later, I was done, but for a title… The heart shape of these leaves calls up some fairly obvious themes, methinks, but my limited imagination couldn’t do anything …

365.354 green growth, 16 December 2012
Is this what climate change looks like? It’s currently 74 degrees fahrenheit, and I’ve been in shorts and flip flops since I woke up this morning, because it was over 50 when I woke up. For someone that likes it cold, this isn’t quite cutting it, and weather like this worries me. Anyway, it’s a …
365.342 the same river twice
A couple of weeks ago, A Lesser Photographer (aka CJ Chilvers) posted the following to his excellent blog (back when he ran alesserphotographer… now it’s only cjchilvers: own your writing and your photography): Longevity in photos has become inversely proportional to the lack of longevity in the subject. Apparently, this drew the ire of some readers, and so …
365.341 almost Koonsian, maybe
When I loaded this into the computer, my first thought was “That looks like a Jeff Koons painting!” I’m somewhat less sure about that now, but it does look painted, does it not? Well, it wasn’t. D7000. Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5 Series 1 (Kiron, maybe), in Macro mode. ISO100, 1/10th, f/3.5. Pop-up set in Commander mode, …
365.340 Olive
I haven’t posted a picture of one or another of the cats of late, so I thought today’s I’mreallynotquitefeelingit picture could remedy that. It’s not quite in focus, but I doubt Olive minds much, and sof-focus techniques tend to work rather well for such beautiful subjects. D7000. Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5 Series 1 (Kiron, maybe), in …
365.337 yesterday’s was better, methinks
Well, I intended to make another ghostwalker attempt this morning, but I got a late start (by ~2 minutes or less), so I decided to try this again. I don’t know about you, but I think yesterday’s attempt was better. It’s not that I don’t like this one, and it’s closer to my vision, but …
365.336 an ordinary tap
I think I got it… I may still try again, but this one’s close. There could be a bit more separation between the stream and the arm behind it, and I could probably stand to minimize the bokeh balls that sort of distract from the stream at the bottom, but this is pretty close to …
