Everyone else is doing one so I will too! I know me, and I know I’m not great at consistently posting things. But I’m going to make this easy on myself. Instead of sticking to pictures from one camera (some … Continue reading

NFL Network is on Hulu. Lots and lots and lots of content. Not just highlights. NFL Films season recaps. All the Hard Knocks episodes are on there I think. And a whole bunch of Greatest Games, with about one for … Continue reading

Freestyle: The Art of Rhyme on Hulu. Would’ve been way more into this in 10th grade. Freestyling died when memorizing written verses and reciting them over beats at radio stations became freestyles. Couldn’t they just use a different term for … Continue reading

Stray Shots Ten

Medieval Times pictures are in this post. They look a few thousand times more serious than the show actually is. Even better is the idea that the location is so close to Hollywood that more than a few cast members are probably aspiring actors.

I shot the last picture earlier today. It’s my first picture with the 35mm lens I ordered a month ago. (AAFES 20% off coupon made the lens $30 cheaper but ordering from AAFES increased shipping by three weeks.) My quick verdict about the 35mm: feels like a 50mm, except it’s a 35mm. I knew that when I ordered it though. Still, I’m planning to keep the 35mm on for a while and hope that it’s a step forward in taking my camera around more.

Black and white holiday

Here are some stray pictures from December. The events include the Secret Santa gift exchange dinner with my friends, the Christmas Eve party with my family and our family friends, and Christmas Day with my family. I edited these a few weeks ago and can’t really remember why I wanted to do them in black and white. My guess is I liked how it looked.

Looks like Pete Carroll’s going to coach the Seahawks. I read this 2007 Los Angeles Magazine article about a month back. It’s long, but it’s really, really good: 23 Reasons Why a Profile of Pete Carroll Does Not Appear in … Continue reading
