I wanted to take bright, pretty pictures of flowers. Looking at something aesthetically pleasing and snapping away was a welcome respite from grinding my way through formulas.
I'm finding I have less and less to do in post. This pleases me ever so much.
Yellow is hardly a favorite color for most, but I fucking LOVE it. It's so sunny and cheerful.
I chased this little guy around for the better part of my photo taking. Unfortunately, I can't control the shutter speed in AP mode, and I can't control the aperture in SP mode. So, this was the best shot of him I could muster. At one point, I was juggling concentration between three different hummingbird moths, but I was delighted. Nature is so fucking cool.
Again, nature is so. fucking. COOL. My brain knows that there are more beautiful places on the planet. I've seen a very, very, very small percent of them. But I'm hard pressed to think of them when I'm driving through Garden of the Gods. I won't know how to process not having this to drive around anymore when I move. It's been my touchstone when I'm upset, or when I need to unwind, or when I just want to feel calm and humble.
I gave fat black cat one of my mittens covered in catnip mist. She tore the mitten to shreds and then rolled around in the bits, looking incredibly pleased with how her life has turned out. I, on the other hand, need new mittens (fuck, I'm clever).
I have to get back to studying now. Even though I'd really just like to go to sleep. I suspect I've got about two and a half hours before I can go to bed. 1 am is looking pretty brilliant to me right now.
