daily slice-of-life blog of a Gen-X dad
This evening, we caught the last bit of twilight from the Manhattan Beach Pier. Camera sensors + post-processing are amazing for creating scenes that are very dark to the human eye.
Today’s daily pic is an 11:59 photo, not literally, but in spirit!
I took this photo with my iPhone 12 Mini on my way to the mailbox. I like the way it turned out! The quality is so horrible that it looks like a painting. Happy accidents…
I woke up early this morning to see the lunar eclipse. I wasn’t planning on taking photos, but since the camera was already on the tripod, I figured why not? My longest lens is not very long, so the moon looks tiny, but I think I captured the color accurately.
After I went back inside the house, I set up the camera for a little time-lapse. Please take a look!
I bought this Sigma 10-20mm lens in 2013 to use on my Sony A77 DSLR, and when I switched over to Fujifilm, I used it only rarely. But I have recently found it to be a great lens for my Twitch stream. The ultra-wide field-of-view allows me to show my desk, as well as Yuzu as she sleeps on her pillow next to me. I’m so happy I didn’t have any takers when it was up for sale a few years go. 😀
