Amy and Jay came over to hang out the other day, and we mostly spent it being lazy. There was some playing with my new 15mm fisheye, which can give some interesting distortions like the one above. Slightly tweaked the colors in iPhoto.

A fisheye shot of some a shoes + power line combo in the parking lot of the Local. There was some discussion as to the opening, and why I never went there when I lived in Atlanta even though it was a couple blocks from 836 Greenwood, and as it turns out the local opened at the end of 1999. Considering I was 19 at the time, and I moved to San Francisco at the end of January, I think I have a good excuse.

Some things I like in this shot: the power line in the middle is straight; the street lights put out interesting colors, the lens flare.

15mm wide angle fisheye of Andrew at the Majestic, 5:30am in Atlanta, GA. The moustache is the result of not shaving on the road, nose from the fishey, and the glasses are just his glasses, all resulting in an “I’m wearing a Groucho Marx” costume kind of look.

The Harpoons played a show at the Drunken Unicorn earlier in the night, at which point we made a pit stop at the Cavern before ending up at Patrick’s house. Not to be discouraged, by the late hour, we made the walk to the Majestic where we enjoyed the best grits, eggs, and hash that were put in front of me at that time.
