It’s like something from another world. I might Roundbottom-ize this one.

Daily Photo: Bronze “Statue”
Ahh, Boulder. This is where I first had a chance to break out the new camera and start working. I’ve seen a lot of street performers on Pearl Street Mall, but I had never seen one of those living statue folks until this weekend. Don’t you think she should have painted the frog bronze as well? It really bothers me that it’s green and plastic for some reason.
Will be utterly swamped with work for the rest of the week. Trying very hard to finish way too many freelance projects before starting the new job.
Daily Photo: Resting II
The new camera is performing satisfactorily. I’ve become obsessed with sharpness lately. The first round of pictures I took were overwhelmingly out of focus and it left me really confused. The camera has image stabilization, so it should take sharper pictures than before, yes? I think the new focusing system was to blame though. It has 11 focusing points instead of the old three point system and that takes some getting used to. I’m using my tripod pretty heavily now and it’s helping. Also, the two second delay timer. This thing just seems super sensitive to shake from pressing the shutter.
I really like how this dragonfly photo turned out, although I probably should have went portrait in the framing.
Bonus Photo: The Moon Rises
I purchased a new camera today–the Olympus E-3. It should be a better camera than my old E-500 in every way, but I can tell that I am going to have to relearn many aspects of shooting. That should be fun. Here’s a heavily cropped shot of the moon for your weekend pleasure.
