Flying Head

A bit of a busy evening tonight helping a friend with some CAD and 3D printing - this one's a 23:53 last ditch effort to capture something half-presentable.
Turns out it's quite tricky to follow the motion of a 3D printer while keeping in focus (ish)!

A few minor points notwithstanding, I'm very pleased with this printer.

Measured Response

Seems an appropriate coda to the day, which was largely spent measuring things, thinking about measuring things, and talking about measuring things.
Not necessarily in that order.
And albeit to rather higher precision than the trusty steel rule can deliver.

It's very rare I use this lens without focus stacking, but today is one of those occasions.

Shrivel

This one's a manually incremented focus stack of 13 shots.
This lens is pretty old, and didn't originally work on digital bodies, but a rather clever person from the Czech Republic came up with a neat little implant chip to upgrade these old Sigma lenses and keep them functional.
Rather pleasing, because it's a good lens.

Platform 1

For only the second time this week, a photo taken on the day!

I went to an exhibition with my in-laws, and took the opportunity to engage in a bit of light street photography. I don't think I've been on the tube in over a year and a half.
I found it slightly less stressful than last time. Small progress, I guess.

Serious Side-Eye

I'm very late posting this backup photo, after an exhausting week.

I suspect this one will be a bit of a marmite photo, with its unconventional framing.
I like it though.
