Always Breaking » rainy day http://threesisters.net/photo_blog Mostly photos, but some other random stuff Sat, 21 Jan 2012 21:30:08 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 Macros for a Rainy Day http://threesisters.net/photo_blog/2008/12/21/macros-for-a-rainy-day/ http://threesisters.net/photo_blog/2008/12/21/macros-for-a-rainy-day/#comments Mon, 22 Dec 2008 04:31:02 +0000 admin http://threesisters.net/photo_blog/2008/12/21/macros-for-a-rainy-day/ It rained all day, and I was bored by about 9 a.m so I decided to shoot some macros indoors. I don’t have real lights, so I grabbed the lamp from my desk and set up on the dining room table. It’s not an ideal lighting situation, but it worked. I used my reversed 50mm lens mounted on the kit 18-55mm that came with my camera. These are the best of what I came up with. The reversed lens adds a lot of vignetting, which I cropped out to varying degrees on each of these shots.

Unfortunately I didn’t take many shots more because I broke my little toe. That made it a little hard to stand up and move around. I spent some time at urgent care and then a lot of time laying around wishing I could pay better attention to where I walk. I am, truly, always breaking something. This time it was myself.
