My friends Ali and Cait procured a turkey a couple months ago and kept it on ice, planning to eventually have a get-together feast with some friends at their home. A good time was had by all, with good taboo games, great food (prepared by master chef for baseball stars Bryan Choi), awful sci-fi movies with great commentary, and good company all around. And it was Tim’s birthday!
Here’s a couple of up-close fireworks photos from last night’s patriotic exhibition. ~10 second exposures, somewhere near 200mm, f8, ISO100. Some of ’em remind me of Pollock paintings.
And here’s two at a more normal focal length. The first one explains those horizontal black lines.
I still would like to do a timelapse on a future Fourth of July, and maybe even try doing some audio. Yep, this is my idea of fun.
Found this box while bringing Christmas decorations down from the attic. What else can you expect from a Filipino mom who works in Microbio/MedTech?
The fine print below “INFECTIOUS SUBSTANCE” says “IN CASE OF DAMAGE OR LEAKAGE IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY PUBLIC HEALTH AUTHORITY” and below that “IN USA, NOTIFY DIRECTOR OF CDC.” I’d better put some gloves on to handle the “Xmas Merry Go Round.”
I remember bringing down some bright red bags marked “BIOHAZARD” from the attic earlier this year, too — Biohazard Bags full of old clothes.
