I listened to this podcast on macro photographyA photography podcast (no video). Focused on Chicago. with Mike Moats and a few of these pictures are based on trying out some things that were mentioned- mainly trying much higher f-stops. I usually shoot close to wide open. The shift from shooting around 2.8 and lower to around 10 to 15 is considerable. Tripple portrait. I like the faces on both the dogs.

These three are part of a return to the stranger portrait series. I stopped doing this for a while after a weird interaction.

It was a busy week so not quite as much outside photography as I’d like but a few decent shots from our online course development initiative. Out of focus but I still like this. The remains of an insane hail storm.
