Dad traded his perfectly good German glass for other perfectly good German glass.

This particular lens is optimized to render my toes perfectly. The Germans really do make good stuff.

Apparently it's a good lens to capture Riley while she's watching TV.

Dad let her shoot one of him too. This is Riley's first published image.

Dad says it took him years to make photos that good ...

... but we're still waiting to see just one that matches up.

If he keeps wasting his time practicing on pigs, it's never going to happen.

Oh! That's better.

This is me at f/2.8.

A quick one

The neighbors had a sprinkler party in their garden today!

See?

Their garden is full of real plants--not whatever grows from the seeds that the neighborhood animals poop there.

I'm looking at you, Mom and Dad!

Hey, Dad tested out a new ancient cheapo lens today.

I tried to hide from it behind this pole, but I don't think it worked.

Baby Zoe didn't even try to hide.

Neither did this flower.

Dad was testing the lens's flare resistance here. He says it's typical of multi-coated optics from the 1970s.

I stopped listening halfway through and stared at these flowers instead.
