this is my mom's friend. she flew in from korea last week (which is why we went to indy).
i took this picture of her hands because i really just liked the crop. upon reviewing the photo, i noticed how her clothes made little bokeh circles. niiice.
we ate at P.F. Chang's while in Indy. TOO EXPENSIVE. Not the most amazing food.
edit: grr. it makes better bokeh if it's larger. this small version on flickr looks like it doesn't even have much bokeh.
The Delicate Arch Trail was one extreme hike. 3 miles roundtrip, uphill pretty much the whole way, in 104°F weather. And I was naive enough not to bring water. But the view of this beautiful icon was definitely worth all the trouble.

delicate job for delicate hands -
Today my wife asked me to fix a little wooden thing that was a part of her cross-stitching floor stand. For those of you who (like me) don't know a thing about cross-stitching, floor stand is a thingy that looks like a little tripod with one leg, but instead of a softbox there is a wooden frame that holds a piece of canvas. With me so far? Good. On that piece of canvas, they (usually female) put (with a needle) little crosses that are made of threads of various color (aha, that's why "cross"-stitch!). These little crosses are in fact, similar to pixels, and with them you can produce something like this. It's quite like a photoshop, only takes a LOT longer and lasts much longer than a photograph. But I digress.
So she asks me to look at her x-stitch table, because of one particular screw. She tightened it and it doesn't want to come back loose. Mind you, she did it with delicate feminine hands of hers. Me - with all the tools that I had in the house, I could not unscrew the damn thing.
I went to a local hardware store and tried to get it off with a wrench and a 200-lb guy attached to the wrench. No way. The damn thing appeared weided to the screw. So I had to buy a hacksaw (the one that cuts metal) and cut the bolt in half. That was the only way. Long story short, she managed to cut a new thread in the t-nut. And somehow she did it in such a way that the nut would not come off. So - Hacksaw: $6. New screw: $1.20. New nut: $0.60. A picture for 365 project: priceless.
This is what was left of the nut after I was finished with it. I think the whole thing makes a good macro lighting exersize: the nut is shiny, has many hard features and lots of smooth places.
The way to light it is to have a light source that is bigger than the object. This is quite usual approach for photographing shiny things: when you take a picture of a chrome-embrioded car or a motorcycle, use white sheets as diffusers. But here I can get a "wrap-around" light by just making a "light dome" out of a sheet of white paper. See the setup for details, I think it's the ultimate ghetto strobist way :)
Oh, and hever let your girlfriends or wives touch any power tools. If they are able to do this with their bare hands, they are going to be deadly with power tools.
Strobist info:
* Canon 20D | 100mm macro | f/8 | 1/250s | RAW | WB 3500
* Sunpak 5000AF below the glass and right with CTO filter
* Sunpak 4000AF in the back, indigo gel, shooting through a white sheet of paper
* Another shee to white paper folded to make a "light dome".

This is the time of year when my African Violet blooms. The blossoms are very delicate and damage easily.

A view we've all seen before, but it was so much fun to try it myself!
Taken at sunset using a grad nd filter to bring out the details in the sky.
We have had enough rain here again this summer to last a lifetime. It does make a pretty picture though.
A delicate pink flower stands out at golden hour on a recent walk around the neighborhood. No idea what type of flower this is. Shot using the +4 diopter with a Lensbaby. Using the diopter, the blur effect of the Lensbaby is less pronounced, only softening the bokeh and the stem leading up to the flower.
Details: Handheld, Lensbaby Composer at f/4, +4 dopter, SOOC

Landscape picture of Delicate Arch in the Arches National Park. Unfortunately there had been a sand storm and this resulted in a sandy sky. Normally you would expect a blue sky.
A person needs to be included to see the scale of the arch.

A very strenuous hike of about 75 minutes (close to 4 miles round trip) along the mountains of Arches National Park in Utah leads you to this location... Your legs get sore by the time you reach here but its all worth for the view you get to see !! The red rock glows perfectly in the setting sun...!!
Scenes from a trip I took to Arches National Park in Moab, Utah, USA in July, 2005. The reddish sandstone & the weathered shapes are truly beautiful! The park is said to contain "the world's largest concentration of natural stone arches." (http://www.utah.com/nationalparks/arches.htm). I certainly had fun seeing them! At the time, before I had learned to crop photos & balance them, I thought none of my shots were any good. I am now putting up a few that I think are worth seeing. This photo gives some perspective on the size & location of Delicate Arch. It is located about a third of the way from the left edge of the photo; you can see the sky through it. The hike to get to it is prohibitively difficult, particularly with Utah's summer temperatures. There is no shade along the way at all; it is completely on the rock face. We opted to take a lesser hike across the rock face from the overlook. Even so, it was well worth seeing!
This picture probably wont make me famous. Just like every other photo I uploaded. I was so lazy after editing it that I couldn't even be bothered to tag it with my lousy watermark.
My life is all about school at the moment. My blissful days and nights have turned into minimal sleep, waking up with headaches and no time for fun. Such is the life of a senior.

Delicate Arch is a 52 ft (16 m) tall freestanding natural arch located in Arches National Park near Moab, Utah.
It is the most widely-recognized landmark in Arches National Park and is depicted on both Utah license plates and a postage stamp commemorating Utah's centennial anniversary of statehood in 1996. The Olympic torch relay for the 2002 Winter Olympics passed through the arch.
