Overweight? Moi?
Yeah, I could take about 3 pounds of fat off my belly, but it irks me to be called “overweight” by my new Wii Fit. I’m 5’10 1/2″ and the Wii Fit only let me enter either 5’10″ or 5’11″ when I set it up over a week ago. I entered 5’10″ and it kept telling me I was “overweight” in its robotic little child’s voice and fattening up my Mii until it looked like a barrel on sticks. After more than a week of that, I finally said, “Damn it!” and changed my height to 5’11″. Why not round up instead of down? Now, it tells me I’m “normal”– at the very heaviest end of normal. Can you believe that? Urgh!
The heart shines on Valentine’s
Each of us is whole and complete, a heart that beats at its own pace, a light that shines in the dark. Whether or not we have a Valentine today, we can love ourselves, love those who love us, and even love those who don’t. Though we be apart from each other, we are a part of each other.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
This is a photograph of blue LED icicle lights taken through a wide heart-shaped aperture with the Lensbaby Composer. I turned the manual focus ring so that the little lights were out of focus enough to became spectral highlights in the shape of the aperture they shone through.
Rainbow Valentines for You!
Happy Valentine’s Day.
This is a photo of a neighbor’s lingering holiday lights taken with the Lensbaby Composer with a heart-shaped wide aperture. The manual focus ring was adjusted to place the lights out of focus and create spectral highlights that appear as heart shapes due to the shape of the aperture.
NOTE: Thanks to you, this photo hit Flickr’s Explore pages! You are welcome to blog it, download it, print it, share it, etc. All I ask is that you not use it for non-commercial purposes only & give me photographer credit, e.g. “Photo by Daniel Greene.”
