F-Stop This

The car came out of the shop today; and will go back in tomorrow. It always seems that the moment I fix something, another thing goes wrong. As I sat down to write an angry rant here at DV, much to my surprise, Ed hobbles over to the table, assisted by his sturdy carbon fiber monopod. Bracing at the bit during his recovery from the accident, Ed threw away the walker, grabbed his hi-tech cane and hopped in the truck for his first solo night out in 40 days. Rock on.

Last night on the way back from Samy's Camera I was looking in the rearview for a car that seemed to have disappeared. Even paying close attention I was surprised by a bike passing on my right. It was the final straw in my thought camel's back of buying another street bike. It's time to think of a track-only bike so if the shiny side goes down it's my own damn fault, and not somebody on the phone.

My eyes blurred over today trying to figure out the new camera. I took one photo, on full auto, and it was really cool, but, it needed work. Back to the books tonight and back to the store tomorrow for a less monstrous bag for just the camera and one lens. F-stop this and iso that and what the f*** is this about infrared? Depth of field focal length aperture yadda yadda. Ed gets to answer questions tomorrow.
