Just A Little Close-Up
trees in early spring look strange dusk is a neat lighting for plant photography learning new filter and lens combos takes patience higher ISO does not always sacrifice image clarity
My Personality
http://www.outofservice.com/bigfive/results/?oR=0.8&cR=0.639&eR=0.406&aR=0.639&nR=0.688&y=1980&g=m I am still trying to digest this and determine what I think about it. I had to take this for an assignment in my Theories of Personality course. I would be very interested in how my friends do at this.
Tripods, Again
Went by Wolf Camera and looked at their tripods. The selection sucked, basically 5 models that ranged from crap to crapier. Only one of the models did the 90 degree flip that I really like on my basic, cheap tripod. Wolf had no ball head tripods or anything even close. After finding that my chances […]
Useless Sales Support
Want to know the worst thing about being a Time Warner customer? It isn’t the flakey service, or their inability to resolve problems, but their inability to do anything effectively, including operate a sales department. On Friday I set out on a simple mission, to upgrade the account to be Road Runner Turbo (10Mbps) and […]
Re: “No Lens Attached”
ok, on the thought of adding the information after the fact, that was a theory, which I thought might be easy enough to execute, except for one problem… I don’t know of an application presently installed that will actually do it. I thought ACDSee or Picasa might allow it, but it seems as though since […]
“No Lens Attached”
The D60 has a message it likes to show sometimes at varying points in its operation with a manual lens attached. Whether attached to the Orion telescope or the 500mm lens, the camera will state “no lens attached”, even though the manual states that the camera accepts manual (non-CPU) lenses. There is no way to […]
Tripods Suck!
Went out locally looking at tripods today and I have discovered one thing that they all have in common… they SUCK! I looked at and fondled several tripods. The only one I found that was stable enough for my purpose was a Dynex 65” tripod. The head was very stable and the weight was good, […]
Picking a Tripod
I am pretty good at knowing what I want most of the time, at least materially speaking (relationships are harder). My search for the perfect tripod is not going that way. I have decided I need a new heavy tripod because in certain conditions my tripod has too much play with the D60. I have […]
The Tag Phenomenon
What is the big deal about tags? You can tag photos, you can tag blog entries, and you can even tag your bookmarks. What is the point of tagging? I have just written the tag code for GITI. It is universal code that can be used by all modules for interacting with the GITI Tags […]
Feeling Perverse
I am by no means the most sexually driven person in existence, in fact, any one who knows me knows that I care very little for actual sex. My sexual world consists of a variety of fetishes and kinks. My interests range from a simple foot/sneaker fetish to bondage and on the upper end of […]
