I promise this isn't Copenhagen in my back pocket! It's actually my lens cap! We were transferring our Longhorns from one pasture to the other and I had fun documenting the process with my camera. I went over to try to bribe the girls with breeder's cubes. Wouldn't you know Ryan caught a shot of me from behind...
fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cimeti%c3%a8re_de_Belleville
Le cimetière de Belleville est situé dans le quartier de Belleville à l'angle de la rue de Belleville et de la rue du Télégraphe dans le XXe arrondissement de Paris. Ce cimetière de 1,80 hectare de surface accueille 3210 concessions.
Historiquement ce lieu faisait partie de la propriété de la famille Le Peletier de Saint-Fargeau qui possédaient depuis 1695 un domaine d'une cinquantaine d'hectares sur la butte. Après différentes étapes de morcellement et de vente de la propriété, un cimetière est finalement inauguré en 1808 pour faire face à la saturation de ceux de l'ancienne église Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Belleville. Le lieu a été auparavant utilisé pour des expériences de télégraphe optique par Claude Chappe de 1790 à 1798, comme en témoigne la plaque à droite de l'entrée principale, car le cimetière se trouve au point le plus haut de Paris à 128,503 m.

On the Birth of a Son.
Families, when a child is born
Want it to be intelligent.
I, through intelligence,
Having wrecked my whole life,
Only hope the baby will prove
Ignorant and stupid.
Then he may crown a tranquil life
By becoming the president

The peanut butter-lover's lens cap!
What if you had a dream that your lens had a lid from a jar of peanut butter for a lens cap, and when you removed the lid and the lens was filled with peanut butter?!?? What then? :)
Don't ask how the peanut butter lid ended up on my 85mil. More interesting thing is that it was a perfect fit.
"Hey! You got peanut butter in my f-stop!"
Here is how homemade lens cap looks on the camera.
I haven't attatched a lanyard yet.

It's made from the cardboard of a Purina Cat Food carton and glued together with Elmer's glue.
I just bought a 18mm prime lens for 50 euros. It's a tiny lens made by Funleader. It's meant to have fun, but the pictures are surprisingly good if you correct the vignetting and greenish corners with CornerFix (sourceforge.net/projects/cornerfix/).
This shot was done in my "pocket studio", whitch consists of a number of colored a4 sized paper sheets and an a3 white sheet. It fits in every photobag, and is very cheap to make :)
The lighting is all natural sulight passing through the window in our boat, and bouncing of a bright blue, and a yello sheet of paper (like the Sweedish flag). To achieve desired DOF and IQ, a long shutterspeed was nessecary, so the camera was balanced on the top of the lenscap, to get the right angle. Simple but effective.
Is there some sort of photo protocol where the "host goes first"? As soon as I started taking my first shot, Toby and Jim grabbed their cameras and we all had a good laugh!

Who doesn't have dreams? We all probably do, but how many of us really try to make those dreams turn into reality?
Am feeling a little... nostalgia creeping into my soul, and feeling helluva tired. Gotta kick back and sleep it all off.
A break is never really a break. School may be out for 2 weeks but I am constantly plagued with the horrors of assignments and deadlines to adhere to. (So does everyone else so I really am in no position to complain.)
