Setup shot for this series of photos
Simple backdrop out of black foamcore (same as the "A Better Bounce Card material), held up by two books. Nikon D70 connected to a SB-600 using SB-17 cable and some other cable.
Again the rain will fall
on the sweet pavements,
a light rain
like a breath or a footstep.
Again the breeze and the dawn
will blossom lightly
beneath your footstep
as you reenter.
Among flowers and sills
the cats will know it.
There will be other days.
There will be other voices.
You will smile alone.
The cats will know it.
You will hear antique words,
tired and empty words
like the disused costumes
from yesterday's festivals.
You too will make gestures.
You will respond with words—
face of Spring,
you too will make gestures.
The cats will know it,
face of Spring;
and the light rain,
the hyacinth-color dawn,
that tears the heart of one
who no longer longs for you,
they are the sad smile
you smile alone.
There will be other days,
other voices and awakenings.
We will suffer at dawn,
face of Spring.

I took this picture and thought it look quite interesting. I liked the angles in the picture and how they come together.
Taipei City, Taiwan: Beautiful classical Chinese styled roof at the National Performing Arts Center of Chiang Kai Shek Memorial.
Strong backlight shot using a wide angle (sigma 10-20) lens. Fortunately the horse was relaxed and let me come by very close!
Furthering my quest to attach junk onto hundreds of dollars of high quality optical tools here is my latest creation.
Drill a hole in a lens cap. (Yes that is a Nikon cap, but I found it in the street abandoned, so it was free)
Stick in an $8 door peephole.
Zoom in.
It actually does get a 180 degree view.

I haven't posted for a while but that doesn't mean i haven't been out almost daily with my camera. I've been experimenting a little with film lately and have several rolls due back from the lab soon.
