A Bajillion Photos

Posted on August 27th, 2010

So as we’ve been trying out new restaurants, I’ve been taking photos. Lots of photos. Some with my fancy-pants DSLR, some with my iPhone. I finally took the time to upload a huge batch of them last night, and I added them to my flickr page. I’m not going to blog about all of them (maybe a few), but if you want to see what we’ve been eating lately, you can see them on flickr. I did notice one recurring theme in all these photos, which I have dubbed Justin in the Corner. Apparently I like to photograph Justin framed in the corner of the photo, with the restaurant background behind him. At Nau’s Enfield Drug… At Rockin’ Tomato… At The County Line… At…

Just a few favorites

Hola everybody! Any big plans for the (American) holiday weekend? Here’s what I’ve got going so far: Meeting my friend Linds at Apothecary tonight for drinks while Justin meets up with some guy friends for dinner/drinks Maybe the farmer’s market tomorrow morning Dinner party at a friend’s house Saturday night (With Rachel & Logan! I can’t WAIT to see them.) Dinner at Uchiko with Rachel & Logan on Sunday (I’m sooooooooo excited to go back!) In between, there will definitely be some laundry-washing, some nap-taking, and maybe some movie-watching. (On the to-see list: A-Team, Toy Story 3D, Last Airbender and Eclipse again) I’m thinking of videoing the weekend with my little Zumi, and posting it here afterward. We’ll see if that works out. So…

The light leak.

Posted on July 1st, 2010

So my Polaroid has a light leak. It’s killin’ me, Smalls. It started out as “this lovely quirk,” but has quickly become “that stupid light spot.” I have no idea how to stop it… I’m guessing I should peek inside the camera once this package of film is used up, but I really don’t know what I’m looking for. Just one more reason I need a vintage Polaroid sx-70 or an Instax… These were all taken on our recent trip to west Texas. My parents’ back patio: My dad’s old truck: This is where Justin worked his first office job: Palms in my parents’ backyard Fountain in my parents back yard: *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *…

A new camera! And my first movie!

So we bought a new camera. No, it’s not the Fuji Instax (though that’s probably next)… it’s this super-cute, teensy tiny digital Harinezumi 2. (Did I mention how much I love Photojojo?) It shoots lovely vintagey, grainy video and lo-fi stills in color or black and white. You can shoot in the macro mode, and it makes everything all blurry-delicious. A few stills: *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * We took it with us to dinner at Cipollina, and then I pored…
