  1. Added 2 praying mantis photos to one already posted: http://bit.ly/32gGHA. New photos are closer-up. Canon 5DMkII, Nikon 100-300mm/Nikon 6T.
  2. Photos with Canon 5DMkII and Minolta Rokkor 58mm f1.2: my dog, Laika, http://bit.ly/3C2l1y, cotton, http://bit.ly/4ERtvS.
  3. Surprised by the size, and stout construction (pleasantly so), of the LaCie hard drive (1 TB d2 Quadra). Had thought they were 1/2 the size.
  4. @ErikRose - looking forward to hearing about audio and video handling.
  5. Trying out Vimperator Firefox plugin.
  6. Really enjoyed using Minolta Rokkor 58mm f1.2 lens today!
  7. Met a photogenic praying mantis yesterday. http://www.geojeff.org/. Looks formidable. Compound eyes. Great camouflage. Major head rotation.
  8. New Canon 1D Mark IV, called an HDDSLR, looks great, but big news for me: 5D Mark II is to get new firmware, plus new wireless / GPS ops. :)
  9. The pace of change to broadband is easily taken for granted. I am casually downloading a 2.5gb SDK, recalling modem connect beeps and tones.
  10. Writing keyword searching with sets of keywords ordered from full phrases -> partial phrases -> single words. Probably are libs for this...
  11. Writing a Python script for parsing and categorizing titles of articles published in Paleoceanography, sorting by age studied and keywords.
  12. I've become comfortable with the Pages interface and can usually figure out how to do what I want. Today, fast outlining plus bullet points.
  13. Ha - my dog said hi after eating a dogbone. Petting her, I felt an uneaten chunk in her cheek. She seemed embarrassed to have missed it. :)
  14. Hmmm... rig with long HDMI cable, monitor, remote follow-focus, crane. Need cable, remote FF. DIY crane FF as long rod to UV joint/gearbox?
  15. Liking the Kessler KC-Lite 8' crane (http://bit.ly/19BLkJ). Will add the 5.5' extension, and carry bag to reduce gear clutter.
  16. Watching PBS show about NPS history. Love historian's quote about field biologist Adolf Murie - he had "sticktoitiveness."
  17. Got a nice big Pelican waterproof case, but have been indecisive about how to pluck holes in the foam for lenses and camera. Today, pluck!
  18. Going with Nikon primes route, for use with Canon 5D MkII - means fiddling with many step-up rings to ND filters. Canon zoom later, I hope.
  19. Learning the ropes on post processing digital video files using Final Cut Pro and related tools. Seeing the need for a tricked out Mac Pro!
  20. Canon 5d Mark II, that is. D-Focus follow focus worked nicely. Tweaks to gain on JuicedLink helped with bad road noise. DIY rig passed test.
