The whole shootin’ match.
Blue orb on the patio
A change is in the wind. While waiting for it I’m spacing out.

Old man cactus
This past weekend I payed around a bit with my prime lenses set at various shutter and ISO settings at f/4 and below. This example is a tweaked crop of the top of the old man cactus on our patio. When I took the shot the cactus was in full shade and the backdrop was a totally hot midday sunlit field. Obviously, the depth of field was VERY shallow. I used Photoshop to pull the detail out of the shadows which, in turn, homogenized the background. Why not?

Tweaked trunks
I grabbed this shot while out on a neighborhood walk today. For fun, I tweaked it mercilessly in post.

Here’s another shot from yesterday’s commute stop. It was 3:45 PM on a Thursday and I was there all by my lonesome.
