4am Work!
I got called into work at 1:30, then 2:30, then 3:30am... I woke up at 3:30am (missed the two earlier calls, thankfully)... and was on the road by 4:15am after spending almost an hour on the phone (yaaayy!)... this was the only good thing to come out of that day!
What's All the Buzz About?
Nothing too special about a Monday night, especially this one. I was just sitting at home, doing normal Seattle yuppie things such as: watching "Days of Thunder" (no joke), researching how to retrofit a 1960 Ford F250 292 Y8 engine from a two barrel carburetor to a very recently purchased four barrel carburetor (no joke x2) while watching said movie, installing dimmer switches in two of the rooms of my house (no joke x3) while not researching the truck and breaking into the basement of said house so I could kill the breakers in order to NOT get electrocuted twice in one night (no joke x4) which actually interrupted the movie. You know, typical Monday night activities. Everything seems quiet on the NorthWestern front until I happened to go outside to look at what the sunset might look like if the sun was actually visibile. Instead of seeing any nice colors in the sky, I noticed a bee literally posing perfectly on a leaf (thank you overcast Seattle).
So, rather than going to meet up with people to go Square Dancing in Ballard at the end of my new favorite movie (no joke x5), I decide to go and have, LITERALLY, a photo shoot with:
a bumble bee
a head lamp
a few flashlights
socks (white, or course)
sandals
Now that I have fulfilled my destiny of truly being a "typical" Seattle yuppie (in the fact that I missed a call from the girlfriend and ignored the remainder of my friends all for a stupid insect... WHILE rocking mandals, I just HAD to then go and blog about it so that the world can see for itself how pathetic I am. The following is the result or my "Bee Whispering" session. Enjoy.
after all was said and done, I only got two decent shots... not exactly what I wanted in terms of picture quality, framing, focus and exposure, but hey... not too shabby for hand held flashlight in the left hand and an SLR in the right while it was actually completely dark outside... a tripod has now been accelerated to the top of my wish list (only second to a new floor for the truck cab)
