Obsessions
Tonight I called Chris on the way home.
"Where you be?" I asked.
"Home," he said. "Lifting weights. Where are you?"
"On my way home. From the camera shop."
"That's a big surprise. Like me coming home from the boat store." Hehe.
Anyway, I bought a lighting kit. I went back and forth on it, but I talked to the store dudes for a little while about it and thought, over the next few years, they definitely are going to come in handy here and there. I've been thinking a lot about lights over the past few weeks. But it does mean I dipped into my lens fund to buy them and that means I won't be getting my lens until next month. But hey. That's okay.
I made Chris stand between the softbox and the umbrella to see how much light they gave off in such a dim room. Not bad.
Now I have another thing to learn a whole lot about: lighting.
Will it ever end? ¶ 11:21 PM
