We have an old Minolta film camera and set of lenses on permanent loan from my dad. A small adapter ring was all it took to mount the lenses on Nick’s GF1. The marriage of old technology and new is incredible. Simply incredible.

It might have been snowing hard in Seattle yesterday, but I was on safari with a gang from Digital Photography Challenge, an online community of folks who use informal online competitions to improve their skills. I’m not sure I got anything worth writing home about, but it was a fun way to spend a snowy morning.

Nick and I found ourselves in Seattle on Sunday afternoon, so we headed over to the Olympic sculpture park at dusk to take a few pictures. This is one of the neatest places to talk a walk and enjoy nature in the city.

I thought the pattern reflected in these glass ornaments at Molbaks was really cool. It wasn’t until I got home that I noticed my face and camera were reflected too!
