I took this shot with my iPhone using the Hipstamatic camera app. The super tweaked, in-camera processing came out looking weirdly cool so I’m posting it. Why not?

Just hanging out
My three week “stay-cation” is winding down, so today I was just hanging out–as was this garden spider.
Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 85mm (with Canon EF12 II extension tube). 1/100 second at f/7.1, ISO 100.

Late summer looking up
I’ve been doing a fair amount of sky gazing during my vacation at the homestead–mostly while enjoying few beers out on the patio. The cirrus clouds that passed overhead during the mid-afternoon yesterday inspired me to pull out my T2i and start looking for upward angled compositions. Yesterday’s post was pairing the clouds with the patio umbrella. Today’s photo (also taken yesterday) mixes the clouds with the clothes line and a Chinese Pistache tree.
Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 42mm. 1/80 second at f/16, ISO 100.

Vacation view at f/22
I’m feeling 100% better so I’ve spent most of the day… practicing guitar. I did grab a few moments of quality time with my T2i while some cool summer cloud formations were passing overhead. This is the first photo I’ve published that was shot at f/22. In fact, today was the first day I took shots at f/22. And I forgot to check the ISO (vacation brain is lazy), so I was shooting at f/22, ISO 100 without a tripod. The trick: don’t breathe! đ
Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 15mm. 1/25 at f/22, ISO 100.

Late summer rose
I’m on vacation and have no plans to travel. In fact, except for a few band gigs, I’m doing my best to stay out of the car–i.e., no commuting! So today, while chilling at the homestead, I decided to play around with a couple of different lenses. This image, shot with my 85mm prime, got the nod.
Lens: Canon EF 85mm f/1.8. 1/125 second at f/2.8, ISO 100.
