365.124 they’re here…

And not much to say about this one. I’m having significant cravings for brisket—especially the crunchy bits on the edges—that are as bad as the withdrawal on the second day without cigarettes: shaking, sweating, bargaining, etc. I tried to fool myself with some vegan sausages, but I stopped eating meat because I stopped liking meat, …

365.123 emerges from the grey of night…

Not much to say about this one. I planned to go for a walk down to pay the rent, but then realized I needed (soy) milk and so took out recycling and goodwill donations along with the rent instead of walking. GoGo me for recycling and donating, and maybe I’ll still make it out to …

365.121 Abstraktes Bild (In the Belly of the…)

Not much to say about this. I intended to go to a photowalk tonight, but the only way to get there involves tollroads and Friday night traffic, so I backed out at the last minute. This was a safety shot I made in case I didn’t get on the walk, but since I’m not going …

365.120 The New Super Macro Bros.

I was saving this one for a day when I couldn’t make it outside due to inclement weather or other factors. Guess what? Other factors… But this here represents something greater than 12:1. The white smudges are mm hash marks in a metal ruler, and the stuff at the top is the edge of that …

Well… I tried, but I got about half a block from the apartment and realized that I was trying to practice my street photography in a rough-ish neighborhood where most everyone is mostly suspicious of most everyone else, which wouldn’t be so bad except it was just after school let out so the only people …

365.116 Jeez! Get a Room!

Just trying to take an innocent photowalk with the Kiron-made Vivitar 70-210mm f/3.5, when what do I come upon but a bee with his proboscis shoved into a little flower. It’s disgusting what bees and flowers get on to, right out in public and all. I mean… /jk. I tried to catch various bees a …

365.114 for lack of a better shot…

As promised, I took the Kiron-made Vivitar 20-210mm f/3.5 Series 1 (version 1) to try and test its bee-shooting performance against the Zomb-E Series and the Tokina AT-X 35-200mm f/3.5-4.5. Of course, it is about 20 degrees colder in Dallas today than yesterday, and the bees are all napping, so that will have to wait …
