Captain's log, stardate 54299. Buzz All-Bran and his intrepid crew, Neil Twister and Frank Zzapp, find themselves on an alien planet populated largely by curious yet relatively benign sarnivorous life forms.
After what seems an eternity of futile take-me-to-your-leader-type smalltalk, they conclude that the planet is completely bereft of intelligent life (having overlooked a species of clever but extremely furtive creatures known as squirls, rarely seen away from the corral).
As they return despondently to their ship, something catches the astronauts' attention: it is an inverted cornetto-like form, but much larger than usual and with distinctive orange and white markings. Sensing a new marketing opportunity, our fearless friends decide to throw caution to the solar wind and conquer the cone.
[somehow I managed to goad some astronauts into conquering a traffic cone -- just for you guys, of course]
Jackie is a visual artist living and working in Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin. As a graphic designer Jackie manipulated type, letters and words into logo's and symbols using paper and ink. As an artist, she manipulates thoughts, meanings and ideas to create three dimensional objects using clay, glass, metal and found objects.
Today I experimented with a Sigma 180mm lens mounted on a Sony A7RM2 body using a Metabones adaptor.
This combination of equipment does not work in Auto-Focus mode so I had to use manual focusing and this was not easy but it certainly would have been impossible without focus peaking [a feature that I have never properly employed before]. In case you are unaware focus peaking is a tool to assist you while manual focusing. Focus peaking highlights the areas that are in focus so you are able to quickly focus the camera and not miss crucial shots. However, focus peaking is not as easy as it sounds because it shows you what's sharp on the viewfinder screen, not what's sharp in the actual image. Since the screen or viewfinder has a much lower resolution than the actual camera sensor areas that are highlighted as being sharp in the viewfinder can be very much out of focus in the image you actually capture.

The Alto, created in 1973 by Xerox PARC, is famous in computing lore. It is perhaps one of the most innovative computers of all time. Microsoft and Apple both "borrowed" from it freely, especially regarding the graphical user interfaces still very much in use today.
The placard says, "Xerox PARC innovations that made the Alto seem so revolutionary include the graphical user interface, Ethernet, WYSIWYG editing and printing, and the Smalltalk object-oriented programming language."
I started up this rotating 3D wireframe cube using the command `\d` and was rather proud of myself when I figured it out.
Autumn walk on a greenbelt path and a few deer came out of the forest. We said hi, made a bit of smalltalk and then went on our way.
