akron family self titled is what the kazbaa failed to be

going through more nightlife stuff which is generally pretty lame but tonight it's very soothing. i dare say it's the tunes and this comfy chair but that would be lame and make sense. oh and maybe that i know there's a frosty dubspress waiting in the fridge.

but time for photos once moar as running, returning is about to start



here is sigrid! she also takes photos and has smile times
it's future dust


i like the almost duotoned-ness of this one! but unfortunately i've vowed to never ever tempt the demons of coloursplash to weave their often tearful hands through my photos once more.

today would've been a great day to have off

instead i slept in and wasted the morning and now i've got to go to work. this afternoon and night shall be pleasant though!

it was my friend tom's brithday this weekend so we liberated his grandparents beach house for weekend long smiles
and although i'd love to get these photos done i've almost had the time to go through the may day road trip so i'll stick to those until they're done

i've been shooting so many videos!! i'd say that video is the best thing about the new camera


here's some more nothing

the style that year

it looks as if at least 1/2 of the shots from the mayday weekend were from the driver/passenger seat of the car! I'll probably load my faves up some stage over the next few days

i don't plan on leaving this chair for quite some time

which means there's a pretty good chance i'll get through lots of photos.


gc with old mate doing the thing off the top




this photo of Ruby is the first shot i've put up with the d90, it was shot on thursday night and was the second shot exposed on the new body, although i'd shot a ton of video from when i got it working that afternoon. the video is amazing, not in respects to the quality, but in respects to the awesomeness of being able to video shit! it's a whole other realm of documenting and one that's practically completely different to the way i want to take photos.



ROOBY



so i worked out i wasn't shooting on HD after a little while, but here is ruby pre-hd being fat and smelly.
although the video is completely manual focusing, it hasn't bothered me at all yet!! it's soooooo much fun, especially with something soft, although i would love to be able to zoom in on the live view.

as we come to the close of our broadcast day

i'd like to pass on that i just bought a seriously badass new camera! i picked up the d90 today but haven't had too much of a play around with it yet but so far it's pretty amazing.
i would've prefered new glass to be honest, but i broke my d60 and i couldn't afford anything worth getting cuz of lame internal focus requirements

the buttons are messing with my head though!! the d60 had about half as many and a third as many if you only consider the buttons i'd ever used. gone are the days of being stuck in menus for minutes while malnourished manatees made mudcakes in moreton bay.

here are the days of me venturing ever further into insanity


so i guess this is farewell to old mate and hello to new mate. but if you shared my soft spot for old mate do not feel sad, i've stockpiled so many photos in the last 2 months there will be shots from her gracing this blog for months to come

such as these

dust roading



maybe the tears won't come?

today i shattered the lcd on my cammy thanks to some craft strap retention by my cupboard but suprisngly i'm not that cut! i think that it's because now i'm kind of forced to buy a new camera- a better one too :D I'm still unsure as to why it's taken me this long to seriously look into buying a new camera. Although, i'll probably still shoot nightlife with the d60 as pestering photo whores won't have any real reason to ask me to re-shoot as all they will see is a souless screen with dead, scattered, neon pixels.

i think the biggest tearer as that i wanted to keep this camera for keepsakes sake as it's my first camera and i've grown very, very.... very attached to it.

so for the next two days i guess it'll just be hibiki and i, disemboweling gods with her swift katana of housewifery.


oh and i'm going to buy a d90 and proceed to lose my minds in it's greatness
