Kittens are easy. They are like photographic crack. You just point, shoot, awwwww….

It’s true! Kitten + 50mm 1.4 = Win.

The trick to getting really wistful looks out of cats is to be at their eye level, but just slightly above. Eye level brings good expression/interaction, slightly above makes them feel small, helpless.

I had lost the quick release plate for my tripod… and just received the replacement I bought from B&H. Hopefully I’ll get out shooting more.

Just a little friend walking around a barn we were having a bluegrass jam session in. It was also pouring rain… so it was rather hard to hear.

Have I ever mentioned how much it rocks to have a long row of large windows? Consider now your first warning.

I need to get out and shoot tomorrow… I think I’ll use the ever popular and available kittens. (I think we have 16 right now!)

Look closer. That’s what I keep telling myself. I started out taking a full wide shot of this door, but as I framed tighter and tighter, I found the real photo later.

Amazing optical illusion.

Have a great weekend!

I played CQB paintball today… I got hit pretty good.

I love the clarity of the flower… the Sigma 50mm F/1.4’s sharpness… it’s fantastic.

Sorry for the late post… today I ran in a mile long race, then I played CQB killhouse-style paintball for four hours. I am very tired.
