blurred motion (retake)

still not quite the shot I have in my head. I think I’ll need some kind of stabilizing gear to really get that one, but the motion blur is getting closer…

2010/05/18: Self-assessment is vital to artistic growth. Look thru the photos you’ve posted so far. Remake one you’d like to improve. #ds184

clean drivetrain

it was warm enough to give the bike a good scrub this afternoon – with actual LIQUID WATER – removing some of the gunk that accumulates in nooks and crannies when riding in the winter. much better. wasn’t too concerned about the mud on the frame, but the drivetrain is pretty clean. WD-40 removed a LOT of rust, followed by a round of chain cleaner, then drying, and a bit of fresh oil. Runs nice and smoothly now 🙂

sidewalk snowscape

hopefully this crap starts to melt soon. -25˚šC this morning, but heading up over the freezing mark on the weekend…

I prefer this version, with the uncorrected nasty sodium light, rather than the corrected pure white version.

2010/01/07: It’s winter time here in the northern hemisphere. Make a photo with snow, frost, or ice as the theme today. (@remilongva) #ds53
