Here are a few pictures from the event:


























There should have been more pictures of Logan actually running, but I was experimenting with a feature on the new camera and it backfired on me.

Hopefully I’ll get back to it again at some point in the near future:

For many a moon I have longed for a fisheye lens. However, for a lens of limited use, the prices are often astronomical. However, after doing much research I did find a few that were priced reasonably. Not one this guy’s bank account would call cheap, but certainly affordable. Don’t worry, Naima and Foster won’t be missing any meals.



Bower 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye Manual Focus Lens

This is the first picture I ever took with this sweet baby:




Here are the technical specs on the new toy:

f/Stop Range: f/3.5 – 22
Minimum Focus Distance: 12″
Angle of View: 180 degrees
Groups/Elements: 7/10 (hybrid aspherical lens)
Length: 2.95″

I have to admit, I’ve already fallen in love with the little guy. If you are wondering, the next planned equipment upgrade will probably be studio lighting. However, this might be a little bit. I have to finish painting the studio.

Speaking of which, who wants to help paint the studio?

Here are a few pictures from that ceremony.




























Unfortunately, Johnathan was injured during basic training. He will be returning home to Iowa to recuperate. He can return to the Air Force when he is fully healed if he so chooses. Either way, we are still awfully proud of him.
