I took some pictures of MIT SAAS’s culture show, SATYA, on Friday while on assignment for The Tech and this was one of the shots I got. The lighting messed with me so much in Kresge with the constantly changing spotlights from dim to bright, red to blue to green to every color imaginable. Also, the Av mode on the D700 tended to severely underexpose so I had to use manual, so you can imagine my frustration with fumbling to get good exposure with these lights. With that said, I really liked how this one turned out. I used a Nikon D700 (as mentioned above) with a 24-70mm f/2.8 and a 70-200mm f/2.8. The 70-200 was rarely used and my god, the 24-70 is amazing. It motivated me to buy this for myself:  http://www.amazon.com/Canon-24-70mm-2-8L-Standard-Cameras/dp/B00009R6WT It should arrive in a few days, but in order to fund this, I think I’m going to sell my 70-200mm f/4L and my 50mm f/1.8 mk I.

Stayed overnight at the airport while waiting for my flight to Florida. The airport is extremely boring overnight especially when you can’t use the outlets because the cleaning crew is working. There were about 15 of them working on stripping the wax off of a 200ft section of the floor and it took them about 5 hours to do it.

Sometimes it feels like there’s nothing interesting left out there. However, usually, if you stop and look (and I mean really look) at even the most seemingly uninteresting object/event/whatever, you’ll eventually come to the realization that it’s actually pretty amazing how that object/event/whatever came to be. You start to wonder about its beginnings, where it is now, and how it’ll end. The various states that things go through either passes too quickly or we tend to be so involved in our lives, our problems, our worries that we don’t take the time to notice them. But I guarantee you that if you just stop for a minute or so and observe the world, you’ll walk away with a new perspective on life.
