If you don’t get it, google “dl-44 heavy blaster” and “han shot first”

 

 

 

Edit: it’s kind of amazing, this pic got picked up on fytattoos.com, and yet I got only ONE comment. almost 800 likes and reblogs on fytattoos, you’d think SOMEONE would say hi here.

I guess anything more complicated than a ‘like’ is a think of the past. I guess I better look for a ‘like’ plugin for WP. B^)

I just picked up a new camera and wanted to try a similar self-portrait to this one. I’m still getting to know this camera – it still feels like I’m fighting it. But once I get out and shoot something other than test shots of myself and the bird, that should change quickly. I’m waffling […]

New Toy

I just picked up a new camera and wanted to try a similar self-portrait to this one.

I’m still getting to know this camera – it still feels like I’m fighting it. But once I get out and shoot something other than test shots of myself and the bird, that should change quickly.

I’m waffling about keeping my Lumix. It’s a great camera, and very very portable. And I have some amazing legacy lenses for it. On the other hand, I’ve reached some of it’s limits (particularly with low light, which is a problem because my absolutely favorite shooting is all available-light work, so I need the best possible high-ISO performance).

So we’ll see how this all plays out.
