Last summer I bought a Canon 7D, and although it has the capability to take HD video I haven’t done much with it. The videos I have shot mostly just sit on my hard drive collecting dust. The other day I decided to take some video of the sky over DC since the weather was a little more dramatic than usual. The weather went from blue skies to downpour to blue skies pretty rapidly. Unfortunately I only have two 4GB memory cards, so I was limited in how much video I could take. I was hoping to capture the change in weather but instead have some video of the rain and some video of the clouds. Here is 11.5 minutes of video of clouds compressed into 10 seconds.

I’m not sure what it is, but I’ve been drawn to photographing bare branches this winter. Here are some I shot with the Mamiya m645 on Kodak 100 TMAX film back in November and just got around to scanning.

Welcome to another World Nutella Day! This is my third year celebrating World Nutella Day (check out 2009 and 2010) and I think I overdid it a wee bit. I started off by baking extra pizza dough, that I made earlier in the week, into sweet/salty breadsticks (or Nutella Dunkers™) and dunked them into a freshly opened jar of Nutella.

This evening, while at a fancy(pants) restaurant, I slyly wrapped two delicious buns in nakpins and put them in my bag to have for dessert at home . . . with Nutella of course! So delicious.

How did you celebrate World Nutella Day?
