One night not long ago but very far away, I pulled down the nightshade in my hotel room, and the distant lights outside shown through as little dots of color on the shade in an otherwise rather drab place.

Jeremy Green “Little Piggies” 6/5/21

My wife was fast asleep on the patio daybed. I sat and watched her. Her pedicured toes were all lined up, and a picture formulated. It warranted better effort than a quick snapshot. With a card set up as a backdrop and a 35mm camera on silent shutter setting, I quietly got off a series of shots at various f stops. Soon she shifted in her sleep, and the moment was gone.

Jeremy Green “Absent Minded” 5/6/21

This image was made as a test of my camera’s updated firmware. I was also familiarizing myself with the capabilities of a new fast 50mm lens, so I’ve been using it wide open at f:1.2 as much as possible. The firmware was designed to improve facial recognition AF; so this was the challenge I gave to the camera & lens, and everything worked pretty well. In reviewing the images, I found that I had made a self-portrait I liked while I was absent-mindedly working on a mechanical exercise.
