picked up an old sigma wide "macro" (1:3) but. its aperture seems to be chosen randomly some of time. turns out this was a known issue on early models and sigma would repair them. this lens is from 2000 and looks basically untouched, so it's probably one of the faulty ones that never got turned in for the fix. i'll try calling sigma tomorrow and see if they'll do the fix on a 20+ year old lens lol. I doubt it but hey it might save me from returning it x . x

update: i returned it just fine 👍

anyway, subject is the same assassin bug on the same plant from last time, but no crop! wowee! BUG!

return of subtle toning, this time less subtle (but still subtle)

all these years and hundreds of miles and i'm still playing videogames with people late into the night where the best move for hot food and snacks is to go down to the local gas station. truly a time honored tradition

you read about the usa 100 years ago and you go "damn it sounds like getting attacked by wild dogs was like a coming of age thing- a sort of tragedy that befell the old masters, that necessitated a whole profession around catching and preventing the formation of roving dog packs, what happened to us as a country? why don't i ever get attacked by wild dogs like the artists whose work so inspires me?" and then it happens to you and you go "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh I See"

pwyc all ages punk continues to be where it's at, also the bookstore it was at is quite cool
