Day 1012 of 365 Again. *sigh* The saga of the 50mm lens continues. Guess what’s broken? Yep. Tried to use it yesterday and discovered that the connection ring on it is all fucked up. So now I have to go through all the trouble of returning it and getting another one. *sigh* Maybe I should…

Day 1008 of 365 Again. This is a ƒ/1.8 50mm fixed lens. It’s actually the third one I’ve owned. I’ve been thinking about investing in a better one (the ƒ/1.4 or even the ƒ/1.2), but honestly, given that I keep breaking them, it’s probably best that I stick with the cheap one. In other photography…

Day 903 of 365 Again. Didn’t know what to do for a photo today, so I decided I’d take one of all of you. Say cheese! I took this around 11:30 or something. It is now 4am. I was kind of working on the comic strip while watching TV and decided to toss in one…

Day 829 of 365 Again. I’m going to do better. I swear. I know I said that last time. I was going to try to do better at answering people’s comments, and I was on task for a few days, then fell behind again. Three weeks behind. Well, I caught up tonight. I went and…

Day 734 of 365 Again. I talked a while back about getting a battery grip for my camera, but I never showed it. It actually arrived way back on Monday and I’ve been using it ever since. I’m quite happy with it. It took some getting used to the size of the body being so…

Day 662 of 365 More.

Hope works. The Pens won the game. Woohoo! Now the problem is, hope isn’t really my strong suit, so I’m completely wiped. I totally don’t get how you cheerful people do it.

I wrote several of you asking about collaborating for the podcast project. If you haven’t gotten back to me, please do. I even sort of kind of have ideas. I should start doing them tomorrow though.

If you never saw like_shipwrecks’ hellcat photo, it’s now up on the cosmic hellcats website. Thanks again to her for doing it. And if anyone else has Hellcats fan art, let me know.

I’m way behind on answering flickr comments again. I feel really bad about that. I really do. I’ll try to catch up soon.

Ummm, this photo really doesn’t mean much of anything. I was just tapped for an idea and it was getting late and this seemed like it might be interesting. *shrug*

Day 508 of 365 More. And Happy New Year. I personally didn’t do very much today, so I don’t have much to talk about. I spent the day recovering from my new years hangover while working on photos and playing video games. Instead I’d like to use this space to welcome all the new 365ers…

Day 374 of 365 More. Depression breeds creativity. Apparently anyway. At mediocre creativity. See… I’m trapped. My only outlet is photography. It’s a metaphor, get it? Oh nevermind. Was once again hoping for a job call. Was once again disappointed. I do have a bead on a very short contract (maybe a week) with an…

day 4 of my 365 days project. The neat thing about this whole process is the evolution of ideas. On day one, as soon as I decided to do the project I knew exactly the shot I wanted to start with. I had the ideas for day 2 and 3 both during day 1, so…
