I’m morning the passing of Daylight savings for another year.
I captured these images using the Ricoh’s RAW format, which conforms to Adobe's DNG format.
Nice! None of this waiting around for Photoshop to have camera specific loaders released, or needing a manufactures conversion program.
Just load the image straight in.
These shots of leaves are all about texture and tone.

Photos of cones
As you can see, I’m a Macro fan.
I finally have a grasp of the aperture/shutter relationship function.
The really nice thing bout the Ricoh is how the shutter and Aperture are controlled with the dial and lever controls on the top of the camera.

October 08, 2006: Why is sushi so expensive?
Hi folks,
I’m back to tell the tale.
There was very little food in the house when I got back, and I haven’t had the time to shop, so I’ve been eating out all week.
Started with fish and chips, then a burger on Wednesday before a film at the gallery, a pizza the following day, and sushi on Friday night.
I visited the local sushi train and spent twenty bucks!
Twenty bucks and I wasn’t stuffed.
Is sushi some sort of fashion thang?
Lift is working today. It’s been silent in the shaft for more then four weeks now.
Suddenly grinding sounds can be heard through the doors.
All my plants have died.
Wasn’t able to convince anyone to water my plants while I was away (just as well cause the lift being out of action would have stretched the friendship,) and the plants suffered in the heat. Only the Aloe and the Australian lime hybrid survived.
I can still feel the motion of the sea at night.
Very weird.

September 03, 2006: My gardening nemesis is Basil…
…which is a shame cause I suck down a lot of spag bol. Pretty fond of pesto too.
Aloe Vera on the other hand thrives around me. There are pots of it all over the flat, despite a regular campaign of giving plants away to friends and family.
The original ‘mama’ plant is starting to look like something out of ‘Little Shop O Horrors.’
I’m contemplating getting drunk and cooking over an open flame, so that I can collect a series of burns that need salving. ;-)
A mate reckons I should go into business cause he saw Aloe being peddled for fifteen bucks a plant at the markets.
I was watching the sunset out in the warm spring air last night and I noticed that the lavender bushes and the single lemon tree had suddenly sent out flower buds.
Must be time to start thinking about tomatoes.
