For just a random, impromptu photo shoot, I was able to capture some good images. That said, the reasons for getting a new camera remain the same, though what I get from the M is pretty excellent. Maybe I should just do it already.

OK, if I’m thinking about a new camera, I should make an effort to use my current one a bit. Henry and I played in the back yard a bit this afternoon. First, I gave the GS a much-needed bath. Washing this bike is no joke, especially trying to get the rims clean between the spokes. I guess all bikes are challenging in this way, but the GS seems even more so. Anyway, here it is all sparkly.


As usual, Henry was playing on and around his swing set. Since it’s Sunday, pants were optional, even in the back yard. The shutter was (inadvertently) stopped down a bit in these images, probably at about f/4. Pay attention!


I putzed around the back yard a bit, trying to capture something interesting. If nothing else, I do have the desire to go on a photo stroll. I’ve been wanting to get back to Savannah, fo some reason—probably to send some more time at Bonneventure Cemetery.


Some more of Henry digging in the dirt. These were converted to black and white in Capture One, using a preset that comes with the program.


And finally, all cleaned up and ready for an early Thanksgiving meal at his grandma’s house. These use a different black and white preset. I think my mother dressed me in that same dorky outfit when I was his age. Sorry, son.


For just a random, impromptu photo shoot, I was able to capture some good images. That said, the reasons for getting a new camera remain the same, though what I get from the M is pretty excellent. Maybe I should just do it already.
