December 27 Photo Dump

Hey, everyone! Today, I got some pictures just outside of Galveston, IN. As usual, I took my trusty Canon Rebel T7. However, I decided to change things up with my lens of choice. Meet the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens, ideal for close-ups and portrait photography! It's not the most versatile, featuring a fixed focal length of 50mm, but it is still useful in many situations. So, here's what this compact yet powerful lens can produce:

Dec 27, 2024 Photo Shoot

Pretty cool, right? I'm pleased. I made minimal edits to these photos, and I think they came out nicely. 

Moving forward, I plan to start doing more edits to my photos and explore RAW photography. I've even secured a Creative License again! Stay tuned for that; it's going to be cool.

That's about all for now, though. Thanks for reading and looking at my pics. Have a good one!

I love my Instax Mini SE. Here's why!

Hey, folks! I did it. I finally got into instant photography. And I love it. Admittedly, I've had some experience with instant photography before now. I got my first instant camera at a thrift store in 2022. It was a Polaroid OneStep from the 90s, and while film was still readily available for it, it was far too expensive to justify using it regularly. As cool as instant photography was, I accepted that it wasn't economically viable for me and moved on. ...Until about a month ago! On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, she introduced me to her Fujifilm Instax Mini 11. It was a much more compact and modern instant camera than my Polaroid. It also used smaller film slides. This was a big deal, as she informed me that the smaller film came at a smaller price. I was intrigued. A couple weeks later, I ventured to Walmart and splurged. I picked up the cheapest Instax they sold: The Mini SE. It only cost about $57, and it came bundled with 10 slides of film. I also picked up an ...

What's in John's Backpack? (EDC)

I may no longer be a computer science major, but I'm still fascinated by electronics of all kinds. That's why I take great pleasure in writing about my "everyday carry," that being the devices that I regularly take along with me. These are often being swapped around, as I am an enthusiast at heart, but some of these have stuck around for a long time. So, here's the list: Phone: iPhone 15 Pro (128 GB) It's a very nice phone. That's about all I have to say about it. Like most people, I'm pretty apathetic toward iPhones. I prefer iOS for my needs, and it does what I need it to. 'Nuff said. Laptop: MacBook Pro 14" (2023, M3) I feel bad for my MacBook Pro. It gets tossed around in my bag, is constantly being used, and has a fair few battle scars. But it keeps on going. This laptop has gotten me through college thus far, and I'm hoping I won't have to replace it for a few more years. Watch: Apple Watch SE (the newest one) I swear that this i...
