Cameras I’ve Owned

Cameras

My daughter interviewed me for a school project, and we talked a lot about cameras… specifically, the cameras I’ve used and owned. So here’s a quick visual guide to the cameras I’ve owned.

Kodak Disc Camera, Olympus D150, Nokia 7610, Nikon Coolpix L4, Nokia N75, Nikon D40, Apple iPhone 3G, Apple iPhone 4S.

I’m sure there were a few others along the way, but this is what I could remember, or dig up through EXIF data. And yeah, the fact that 4 of them are phones does seem weird, or maybe not weird enough nowadays. When I had the two different Nokias, those were actually my primary cameras at the time. The camera in the iPhone 4S is pretty darn good, but yeah, I’m still rockin’ the D40 after 3 years, and it’s still working well, though I’m eyeing up some other Nikons as I’m contemplating the DSLR video stuff. And hey, how about that Kodak Disc Camera? Crazy stuff, with those silly discs instead of rolls of film. (And I mean discs of film, not discs of data.)

I think I’d like to create another image with all the cameras I’ve used at work added in, because that should be a pretty extensive list of gear…

Quelab, Albuquerque, New Mexico

Quelab

I was in Albuquerque, and had hoped to visit Quelab while I was there, and I did… sort of.

Due to my tight schedule I was unable to coordinate with any of the members to find a time I could meet up with any of them there, so when I did get some free time I took a little photo walk and managed to snap a few shots of the place.

So no stamp for my Hackerspace Passport this time, but hey, maybe I’ll make it back to Albuquerque someday, right?

Day of the Pete!

Day of the Pete!

Día de Muertos! Day of the Pete!

After coloring the Wenchkin van, our pal Wenchkin was so pleased she actually drew me! So now you can colorize Pete.

(The image above is of course from my avatar, which originally came from this photo.)

I feel quite honored… If you like coloring (and who doesn’t!?) check out the rest of the Yucca Flats, N.M. site for more awesome coloring action.

Wenchkin Van

Wenchkin Van

Over on Google+ I started following Carolyn Curtis (aka Wenchkin) because she makes awesome art.

The latest awesome thing she’s done is Yucca Flats, N.M., a new art blog with some coloring pages, and if you know me, you know I love me some coloring pages, and I love me some vans… combine the two? You get my “Wenchkin Van” you see above. (Click the image for the full-size version.)

It felt good to use the Wacom tablet again, even if I’m just coloring in something I didn’t draw myself. Part of my problem is that I don’t think I draw very well, but I still like to draw, so this is a nice compromise.

I hope you like it Carolyn! :)
