Drove up north to see a movie at Chunky’s (why does the south shore not have one of these) with Krysta- Dark Shadows. Couldn’t *not* see it, right? I love driving back through Boston especially when the weather is nice, I really love this city. This is the Zakim Bridge, from underneath.

Project 365 Day 140: Graduation

Graduation day! We stopped and took some photos before heading into Boston because I knew we wouldn’t have time once we got there. As you can see, BU’s robes are bright red, very distinctive! It was a very long day, but lots of fun. We went to a reception first, I got to talk to some of my professors in person, and some of the classmates I knew the best from my PM team, as well as a bunch I didn’t know. It was really cool to all be in the same room, and even in the same place as the “normal” students.

If you click on the photos they’ll display the title & comments, too.

We went out to a nearby Chinese restaurant with our churches dinner club tonight. Good times, and good food! And good tea, I was trying to find something to get a nice photo of, and I liked the teapot with the cup. Played with it a little in Lightroom, the lighting wasn’t great so there wasn’t great quality from a cell phone camera without flash.

Look, this was taken at my work parking lot, and it wasn’t raining! The past 6 weeks or so every day I went into the office (once or twice a week) it rained. Nice to see the sun again after some rain earlier this week too.

More fish. I got 2 different sets of cory trios- they were both sold as julii cories, I’m not sure which ones actually are, the other ones might be false juliis I think. This is from the second set.

When hobbies collide: fish and photography. It still blows me away that I can actually get decent photos of tetras after so many years of trying so hard with a point & shoot that just didn’t have the shutter speed, and the on-camera flash obviously doesn’t help with a glass tank. But higher shutter speed and off camera flash means I actually have some photos of my neons! I plan on getting some cardinal tetras to bump up the school, I actually like them better but they’re about 3x as expensive, so I started with neons.

Had a great weekend down in CT. We stayed with my dad & step-mom who have 4 cats which is nice when we have to leave our cats at home. This is Rob with one of their cats, Buddy.

Day134, a photo by clb2196 on Flickr.

I took some photos of Kristen and her handsome pony(ish) Riley. I have a bunch of editing to do but I love this one, he’s jumping so huge and adorably!

Went to Union Cemetery again to take some photos today- I only took my 35mm and macro adapter. It actually ended up being too sunny to take the wide-open aperture photos I wanted to, but I got a few decent shots. I think the caterpillar/inchworm/whatever it is is my favorite.

This is the new lip stain I got. I usually don’t wear anything on my lips but I like how this is like a marker and not sticky at all. This is another shot with my 35mm lens, which I really love for shots like this.
