This is actually a "women's tackle bag", found in the fishing section of Walmart for under $30, but it fit my need perfectly. For more than a year, I've been looking for a camera bag to meet the following requirements: (1) hold 60D with battery grip and lens, plus another lens and flash, (2) light in color, and (3) not expensive.
(You don't have to live long in a hot climate to realize black camera bags are a bad idea.)

Marline and myself let a group of Delta employee and non-Delta volunteers to the second annual Christmas party held in Juampas, Haiti on December 5th, 2014.
A total of 13 of us flew to Port-au-Prince from different airports of the USA and rode the 2.5 hour drive to Juampas on Dec 4th. On Dec 5th, over 500 unfortunate kids ranging from 4 to 14 years old were ecstatically happy at the end of the party with lots of inflatable games, popcorn, hot dogs, cotton candy, live music including line dancing, nail painting among other activies of the day. And in the end, each kid received a Xmas gift from Santa.
We all returned to ATL on the Delta flight from PAP. Thank you Delta Air Lines, Mount Parran Church ATL, Wings of Hope International and the volunteers for making this a reality.
See you all next year.

Is it just me, or is there a large arrow pointing left (south)? I didn't notice it when I made this photo.
During our two-day whirlwind trip to Oklahoma for my Dad's 70th birthday, we also visited the Jasmine Moran Children's Museum -- which was across the street from my apartment for 8 years yet I'd never been inside.
1/25 seconds, ISO100, f/5.6 (focal length: 10mm)
Part of my exercise for Strobist's Lighting 102 3.3 - Balancing Flash/Ambient Indoors lesson.
Basically, I just exposed for the subject -- a Marvin The Martian cup I've had for two decades -- with the flash, and then scrolled the shutter speed one stop per photo until the room was overexposed. The point of the exercise it to teach that with flash photography there are two exposures in every photo -- one for the flash and one for ambient light.
Flash: LumoPro LP180, 1/16 power, shot through cardboard DIY softbox, just a few inches out of frame
Lens: Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM
Ambient: Daylight, coming through three windows behind me and to camera right, two more windows in the kitchen at camera left, and two more windows in the bedroom that's barely visible through the doorway at upper left.

This is part of an old airplane that's built into the children's museum structure.
During our Christmas 2014 trip to Oklahoma, I lost my Canon RC-1 wireless remote, which I'd had for nine years and which worked with all my Canon DSLRs. So I replaced it with the Vello FreeWave Plus wireless remote control.
The RC-1 was a simple, one-button remote that used a watch battery. It used infrared and thus required line of sight to the front of the camera. Its range was limited to about 25 feet.
On the other hand, this Vello FreeWave unit uses radio frequencies, and therefore does not require line of sight and has a range of 100m. It can handle singe shot, multi-shot burst, bulb mode, and timer.
Pictured here are the transmitter (bottom), receiver (top left) and connection cable (top right).

I started my trek at about 10:40 on a Sunday, so I expected traffic to be light, but man these streets were deserted. This is looking WNW on Claverick, from Bassett St.
Taken during my first (of three) walkabout of the day in Providence. For this one, I left the rental car at the children's museum where my wife and kids were, and walked around without much direction.
In hindsight, this is approximately the route I followed: South St, right on Hospital St, left on Bassett to the I-95 frontage road, along the interstate to Broad St, and then right on Broad until it changes to Weybosset, right on Richmond all the way back to South St, where a right turn got me back to the Childrens Museum (compass directions won't work here, since none of the roads follow the compass).

I remember when every effort to type ended like this, on my Dad's old Underwood. It severely limited the words per minute I could crank out.

My Yongnuo YN560-II arrived today, mostly funded with Christmas money.
Lens: Sigma 50mm f/2.8 EX DG Macro
Light: LumoPro LP160, fired via Cactus V4 wireless flash trigger, bounced off white ceiling
Since one of my original Yongnuo YN560-II speedlights wasn't working correctly, I took it apart. Here, I'm holding the base of the flash away from the rest of the body, after removing four tiny screws.

Since buying white flexible cutting mats two years ago for use in my DIY light shed, I've realized that those cutting mats have been the best value of any photography-related item I've ever purchased. I use them for backgrounds and reflectors, and of course as part of my light shed for product photography.
So I picked up a few more this week, of varying colors.
This is a "Chop Chop" set of four (red, blue, green, yellow) translucent mats ($6.99 at Bed Bath & Beyond) that I've already used as flash gels. They're 11.5"x15".

The light was provided via this setup, with two off-camera flashes firing through a 42-inch diffuser.

Apparently, there had been a festival of sorts on Richmond St the night before. This part was blocked off with barricades and nearly covered in litter, including glass beer bottles. The lone man with a baby carriage just happened to walk into the edge of the frame as I took this photo.

I'm sure this cake was good too, for those who like nuts in their frosting, or carrot cake in general. (My Dad requested this cake.)
Taken during our two-day whirlwind trip to Oklahoma for my Dad's 70th birthday. This one is actually from the birthday party.
2013, April 14 - Killeen, Texas
While in Oklahoma recently, my Dad handed over a couple of old photography-related items. Here's one of them, a Minolta Hi-Matic 11 camera with no manual controls (except focus).
And yes, that's a Social Security number (SSN) engraved on the metal casing. When I search for the number, two sites (here and here) show that it belonged to Elmer J. Findley who died in 2007 at the age of 86; his last residence was Wewoka, Okla.

With the purchase of a birthday cake, the local supermarket gives you a "smash cake" for free. It's just for the baby to smash.
Trying another angle, looking up out of the long grass in Marline Meadow, beautiful place.
Monthly Project:
I have got involved with a little project with a couple of friends, it's all a bit of fun really, we are submitting 5 photos each per month on a chosen subject. This Month is 'small'.
I love the idea of this little project and I am hoping it will get me using the old grey matter a bit more so I have decided to post my submisions here for all to see as well.
