I really should start bringing my regular camera with me again, I think. The clouds this evening were spectactular, and I only had my iPhone on me.

I’m cooking some tomato pasta sauce at the moment and decided to snap a few random macro photos. And do some Photoshopping.
I swapped the work MacBook on my desk for a 17″ iMac, as a colleague needed a portable machine.
Also, I should mention that I am now SANS ROOMMATES! They moved out on the weekend. 😀 I’m paying a shitload of rent for the moment, until kungfupolarbear gets here, but it’s so worth it. The lounge room is extremely empty right now, since all the furniture except the lights and the coffee table were my roommates’. And Lily has her own room now! And she’s got a proper little bed too. 😀
And Mum bought her this for the door:
Guess what, more photos! I had dinner at Mum and Dad’s, and Lily was helping Mum make the dessert (baked apples, and they were nom nom nom!).
I’ve been reading Strobist all day at work, and got all inspired by this entry on apparent light size. I was up at mum and dad’s last night and made a DIY reflector (link for instructions), and used that tonight in place of an umbrella for these photos. I’m very impressed with how they turned out! I did a very slight brightness bump and a crop in Aperture, other than that they’re exactly how they came off the camera.
I took a couple of macro photos of the barbecue at Mum and Dad’s at the end of last month, but they weren’t particularly interesting. I did some adjusting of the curves in Photoshop today, and this is the result. I’m quite pleased!
EDIT
I’ve uploaded the two original photos, before I adjusted them.
Yes, I’ve been up and mum and dad’s for Sunday lunch, and yes, I took way too many photos of Lily!
Lily is taking after me!
Some Lily!
