I tried to make pickled eggs, but I didn’t have quite enough white vinegar… so I substituted in some live culture apple cider vinegar and it turns out that was not such a good idea.

Check out these photos!

There were three people offering “Free Skipping” downtown today, I was quite supprised that so many people took them up on their offer in the short time I stopped to watch.

This poor fellow lost his Blackberry.

I liked this wall I saw today.

It’s been ages since I posted anything, I’ve been very busy with work and haven’t had much time to get out with my camera. I still manage to teach some photography in my spare time, but I don’t have as much as I’d like to take pictures.

I just liked the light hitting this building today. I don’t even know what building it is.

A new toy!

SHAZAM! It’s a Mamiya RB67 Pro-S medium format camera (6x7cm) with 4 lenses, 3 view finders, 2 backs, a grip, and a couple of other accessories that was very nicely GIVEN to me by a friend of my fathers… a very nice gift indeed.

Major components

Compared to my 35mm camera. Both with “normal” lenses. 50mm on the 35mm camera and 90mm on the 70mm camera. Both with eye level viewfinders. The Nikon is sporting a 50mm f/1.4 and the Mamiya a 90mm f/3.8 (as fast as they came.) An f/f1.4 for the Mamiya would be larger than a big coffee can had someone ever made one.

I’ve been very busy… business is very good.

I’ve been too busy to blog latley, but I’ll toss this teaser at you. I recently drove to Arizona and made a stop at Bryce Canyon on the way.

Apparently it can provide dramatic light for a self portrait. I wonder if it can do anything else well…probably not.
