comments: today was an exciting day. this is because I converted one of my Nikon D1's into an 'infrared camera'. and I sorta took a bunch of infrared-like photos using a R60 filter and an IR flashlight. I learned a lot playing with this. some things I learned:
-when you take the filter off your CCD in a cat-dominated apartment, make sure you blow the dust off the CCD _before_ shooting.
-I need a proper R72 filter to actually shoot IR properly.
-everyone looks creepy in IR light
-bill and travis aren't very good at focusing.

bbq pork noodle soup
comments: the linked wiggly of hey ritchie is very messed with. I think the wonky colours can be mainly attributed to the D1 being old and weird. there wasn't much IR light showing up in this shot.

and we shared:

some gailan

and tommy had:

his regular sandwich... covered with extra infrared light!
comments: click to see another pic where the IR light played no real part. but it's neat, cuz of the sparks!
