Hard Eight BBQ
November 2, 2019Oh boy is this place good. It’s so good. You get there and the air is filled with a glorious smell of Texas Post-Oak smoking up hundreds of pounds of meat. After waiting in line for a bit you come across this pit just filled with beef, chicken, pork, turkey, sausage… oh it’s so good. It’s so, so good. There are 5 or 6 locations around Dallas. Do yourself a huge favor and stop on by next time you’re there.
A walk in Texas
November 2, 2019This weekend I ventured back down to Texas with my company to meet with Optometrists to chat with them about websites. (We were there last October as well) It was a fun event and we did well down there. The weather was fantastic and it was nice to head outside into the sun several times.
We stayed at the Omni Mandalay in Irving just outside Dallas. There’s a really nice walk around a lake and a canal that we ventured around a few times while there. Of course I had to take my camera along.
A rather long phone call
October 17, 2019Today when I left work I was added in to a conference call. It takes me about 20 minutes to get home. When I arrived I was still on the call, but mostly as the quiet third-wheel. I decided to grab my camera and take a very, very short photowalk around my yard and continue to experiment with high-ISO B&W photography.
All photos shot ISO 12,800 on Acros Simulation, 85mm 1.8 @ 1.8-2.5.
Moonshot
October 16, 2019Fall is here, days are short, and sometimes the moon is big and bright well into the morning.
Grain
October 16, 2019I stumbled across a fellow Fuji photographer’s blog today that has spent a lot of time creating in-camera film “recipes” for classic film stock. Did that make sense? Probably not. Fuji cameras create amazing JPG’s, and give you a ton of creative choices to output in many different styles. Here is my attempt at Ilford HP5 Plus 400 B&W according to this recipe.
Growing Up
October 10, 2019Time passes too quickly, and these little people seem to be staying little but the data suggests otherwise. Both are over an inch taller since April. It’s not fair, it’s just not fair!
