Last day being 27.

By curiousillusion ( February 25, 2010 at 7:24 pm) · Filed under photography, , ,

Today was a pretty happy picture day, for the most part, one of those days when you almost wish you weren’t taking just ONE picture a day.  And then you remember that you have a blog and can totally put as many pictures up on it as you want.  Whee!

So first of all I have to share the view from my house when I left this morning:

purple sunrisePretty, right?  37 degrees this morning and I stopped to take a few shots.  I really couldn’t resist.  This was nearly my picture of the day except for 2 things… 1) there’s no pink (stupid February theme I came up with) and 2) I got something in the mail today.

book macroIn case you can’t tell by the pic… I got a macro lens.  :)  A very generous new friend sent it as an early birthday present and I probably was supposed to wait til my birthday to use it but I couldn’t resist.

star stickersTo say I’m in love isn’t truly expressing how I feel. These stickers are the size of my pinky finger.

ten dollar billThe back of a $10 bill (which I need to use to pay for my girl scout cookies, if the girl ever comes to collect!)

Happy sigh.  :)

Oh and as for the title… yup, today is my last day being 27.  And yup, that means tomorrow is my birthday. So let’s save the birthday wishes for *tomorrow*, shall we?  I’m already getting birthday emails and I’m like “but it’s not my birthday yet!!”

  • Hey thanks for visiting my blog! The sky has some pink in it! I have some questions about your Lola bag...and also would like to know what Macro lens you got!

    Lola questions:
    ~do you have a pic with in on your shoulder?
    ~Are the inserts removable?

    Thanks!!!
  • The macro lens: Sigma 50mm f/2.8.

    Lola questions: No I don't yet. I need to get to that. I tried but, well I looked pudgy in the pictures and that's not cool. That's not the fault of the bag tho, that's the fault of me being... pudgy. :p I'll try to get some shots this weekend though.
    Yes, the inserts all have velcro on 3 sides. There are 2 long inserts and 4 short ones and you can move them anyway you want.

  • Have a wonderful birthday Ari and I love the $10 bill macro.
  • Oh too cool ... which macro lens did you get?
  • it's a Sigma 50mm f/2.8. :)
  • Ooh. That's a pretty affordable choice for macro. It hadn't occured to me to look at that focal length for a macro (I keep getting hung up on the 100mm f/2.8, which is about twice that price). Eeenteresting...
