cell phone pictures # 3

got a bad cause of wanderlust

If only I could fly without aid.

This is not a photography blog

Even though it seems to be turning into one.

reverse mounting is not reverse cowgirl

My friend recently demonstrated a technique called reverse mounting. It's basically what it sounds like. You reverse the lens to create a micro view. Here are two very helpful links that will explain things in a way that I refuse to: one and two. It's very tricky because you need very good lighting conditions, but it's really fun to play with.

cell phone reminders

In the interest of looking for things I can put up here that are both interesting to me and require only a minimal of frustration, I bring you things I have in my cellphone. Part 1. (And oh yes there will be many parts of this.) no captions required.

Yeah, I've been keeping up

First 4, plus 1

Yeah, I'm planning ahead

I'm going to confess something:

I don't touch my camera nearly enough.

It's true! I don't.

Any of them.

I mean I fondle them fondly from time to time and look at the world through viewfinder, but that doesn't count -- does it?

No.

Fine.

So! October Challenge time! (Oh no, let the curse be set now to lie in doom forever more, booooooh~)

Yes well.

I'm going to, hopefully, use my cameras daily and on Sundays (or Monday mornings whatever) upload the best of each day. Or the worst in case everything is mediocre.

"It's all white and grainy (somehow)!"

No. It's a post modern, contemporary, minimalist view of your parent. (Mom, Dad, legal guardian, this insult is all inclusive!)

Hahaha.

What.

So be prepared for this! Oh fine if you really want to know the reason is because my flickr super account expires in November, and I'll probably be too cheap to renew, jeez, curious reader.

But really, it just happened in Boulder, CO

Self Showcase

From the Sakura-con trip.

in color.

ho hum go

I went to Sakura-con with some friends last weekend. I was the wonderful and magical photographer, and as such I took a lot of photos. Oh did I ever. Now I have to go through all of them and crop, burn, and play with color. So much work. So much work. But it's been good so far, I think. I have a lot of material to trash and sift through and still have good solid picto-graphs.

Guess what my next few updates are going to be about? Yup. Maybe I'll throw in some interesting things about digital photography and process.

Here's one of lovely Seattle: I did love you, at first, but now I don't. The end.



And a shot of our room.



Annnnnnnnnnd this. My wonderful models.
