Woof!
Summer Rain and Time-Lapse with the Fujifilm X100T
“Possibly Rain” Cedar Park, 2019
We got a tiny bit of rain this evening which was nice. But mostly I loved the fun stormclouds.
I captured the following time-lapse with the Fujifilm X100T. The regular battery that the camera uses has horribly low capacity, but luckily it can charge via micro-USB so I plug in a portable power bank and the camera just runs straight off of that. Very convenient!
The built-in intervalometer in the X100T is also nice… I set the camera to take a photo every four seconds, then compiled all the photos into Adobe Premiere to create the video. The only thing I do not like is that there’s a limit of 999 photos in one series. Not sure why they limited that…
The next video is what I would call a fail. I forgot to manually focus the camera, so for each of the 900+ shots, the X100T would auto-focus, and of course, sometimes it didn’t focus on the clouds but instead on the filthy window. Oh well, live and learn! It still looks pretty cool, though. 😂
I hope you had a nice day!
Semi-Wordless Wednesday
“Pre-Rally at the Ridge” Cedar Park, 2019
Today’s photo is a panorama made from four photos taken with Mariko’s Fujifilm X-T10 and 18-55 mm lens. If you look at the man in the center, you can see his head is a little shifted. 🤷♂️ C’est la vie!
Decluttering the Email
“Relaxing Cat” Cedar Park, 2019
こんばんは。How’s it going?
So I was going through a couple of labels in my Gmail to declutter them, specifically the school-related labels. The Kids/School/Bay and Kids/School/Koa labels have emails going back several years even though I try to keep those nice and tidy. A lot of those were grade alerts that I no longer need. In fact, most of the emails were things I don’t need to look at such as band rehearsal reminders, school events, field trip info, etc. Time to spend some time decluttering the email!
However, I did keep a couple of messages, like the Welcome to High School, and other similar milestones, but the rest went into the trash. It was fun to quickly scan through the email subject lines and it brought back many good memories, but they have served their purpose. Nice to relive those one last time, but it’s now time to let those go and move on! Marie Kondo would be proud of me. 😀
Today’s photo is another one of Anko. She really knows how to get comfy wherever she’s at. For good measure, here’s a second photo:
