So my new toy is the Metabones Speed Booster. It's expensive. It's worth every penny if you (1) have a lot of manual lenses that you would like to use with, and also possess, a (2) Sony NEX camera.
I've started a thread over at Mflenses to test and document compatibility, issues, etc: forum.mflenses.com/metabones-speed-booster-test-thread-t5...
Notice how different the sky is: This isn't done in some 'fancy' photoshop program - 'just' Windows Live Photo (part of Office 2010)
Getting through the day, with the essential black coffee.
(I built the wall) just thought I'd tell you ;-))

From an original photo.
The original photo started out as a dull winter image; I thought it needed a massive boost of color!

This was taken outside the store Roden Gray at 6:30 in the morning where over 300 people, my self included, lined up to get a chance to be in a raffle to have the opportunity to purchase the Yeezy Boost 350 Moonrocks. Luckily my group came away with one of 8 pairs.
Its interesting what brings people together.
Although it seemed Guido and I lost the chance to photograph the little owls, late in the afternoon we did got a positive message that they were spotted again. Well worth a try. The sun disappeared and clouds took the overhand so the camera ISO boosted to the limits, After a "little" bit of luck, the only thing left was to get rid of that awful pole on the left (PS)...
I know this is a little blurry... and very dusty... but it just fits with that book title.
I had a very busy and little crazy day yesterday. I plan on doing a lot of underachieving today.

Some like to boost their stories artificially, making a mountain out of a molehill. Since wanting to make everybody else acknowledge the storyteller’s greatness, the whole play forms a buffer layer between reality and wishful thinking. And as the narrative evolves, fear and insecurity behind it slowly disappear in thig fog of hard-earned exaggerations.
Yet, one day this tactic always stops working, causing everything to collapse like a house of cards and ending in a complete mess. But making things bigger than they are, does not automatically make them better. In the end, is it the ones who can do without those pompous made-up stories who can convince by the simplicity of their purity.
Yes these are really this bright. Found in SW Oklahoma Wichita Mountains. See the original for a non-saturated shot. When you look closely at one of these in person the colors are incredibly vivid this adjusted picture may be a closer representation.
(85% sure that yellow bar piece isn't genuine Lego, but, oh well.)
So I made a parrot hardsuit way back in 2012 or 13. I also have in my Flickr gallery a chicken-version made in Lego Digital Designer. And now, years later, I finally revamped the original model that's somehow survived being taken apart all this time. It's my newest League of Lego Heroes entry, Boost-Rooster.
I feel like this guy has to be an anti-hero. Just an exceptionally technically-inclined fowl who probably has a bone to pick with Tyson Foods, among others.
View the two other pics for detailing and the, heheh, "cockpit".
Gedurende de Eerste Wereldoorlog nam het binnenlandse toerisme in het neutrale Nederland toe. Een uitstap over de de grens was immers niet praktisch mogelijk. Om de binnenlandse toeristen van dienst te zijn, werden er meer wegwijzers geplaatst. Door de oorlogsomstandigheden was ijzer schaars en duur. Daarom werd er een eenvoudige betonnen wegwijzer in de vorm van een paddenstoel ontwikkeld. De paddenstoel paste met de aan natuur ontleende vorm goed in het landschap. In de zomer van 1919 werden de eerste proefmodellen geplaatst. De paddenstoelen waren ontworpen door architect ir. J.H.W. Leliman. Hij is onder andere bekend van het Noord-Hollands Koffiehuis, recht tegenover Amsterdam C.S.
Na de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd een nieuw model geïntroduceerd. Model “Boost”, genoemd naar A. G. M. Boost.
Hij was voor de oorlog kapitein bij de Genie en had meerdere kazernes ontworpen. De oorspronkelijke versie van de Boost-paddenstoel was voorzien van de letters ANWB in ieder van de vier vlakken van het dakje.
Uiteindelijk bleken de vertikale vlakken van de Boost-paddenstoelen minder prettig leesbaar en werd er teruggegrepen naar een aangepaste versie van het oorspronkelijke ontwerp van Leliman met schuine vlakken.
De afgebeelde Boost-paddenstoel staat nabij Wapserveen in de provincie Drenthe aan de T-splitsing van het Midden-Oosteinde met de Wapserouwerweg.

Usually, I use the "boost" feature in Picasa sparingly. But when I saw what this looked like boosted way up, I really liked it. This is a restaurant in San Jose, CA.
