Small Gunns

To commemorate 30 years of NASA’s shuttle program, Small Gunns has created this wonderful space shuttle shirt. I received mine today and was impressed with the soft feel, and it even came with a hand written thank you note!

New Toys

After thinking about buying a macro lens, I decided to try a really cheap option first: extension tubes! I ordered a set of 3 tubes for about $10 on eBay. They actually work really well with my 50mm f/1.8 lens. Here are the tubes…

Which allowed me to take a nice macro shot of my other new toy… a new Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 lens! I’ve decided to get rid of the 28mm f/2.8 lens and use this instead.

A couple of items caught my eye – a chocolate mouse (it looks like a block of chocolate with a bite taken out) and a Space Invaders ice cube tray. I bought them both, and tonight I put the ice cube tray to use in a different way. Space Invaders chocolates!

All your chocolate are belong to us!

New Zealand Trip

Tomorrow morning Camille and I will be heading to New Zealand’s south island. We’re hiring a car and driving around for two weeks, taking in all the sights and partaking in some exciting activities like a helicopter flight, hike on a glacier, jet boating, cruising Milford Sound, horse riding (through Lord of the Rings territory) and a tour through the all-important Cadbury factory!

Of course, we’ve packed all the essentials. No, not velcro gloves… CAMERAS! 

We're taking the essentials...

Keep your eyes peeled, because I’ll try to update this blog every few days with some teaser photos of what exciting things we’ve been doing. See you all soon!
