Macro Monday Is Off To Austin

New macro photo there.

Is it good? No. Do I like it? Yes.

I’m noodling actually on getting a new macro lens — the MP-E 65mm, would let me do macros up to 5x (!) instead of 1x magnification, which is huge, but would also require greater technique, stability, light, and patience. There’s probably a metaphor in there for something but it’s Monday and it’s early and I’m not quite ready to snatch it, yet. Either way, be nice to up my macro game a wee bit.

Also, I’m now at a point where I don’t really have any deadlines? I mean, I do — but they’re a good ways off? And I’ve only got to write one book this year?

So, with that in mind, I went on a small adventure on Twitter.

Begin here.

Please enjoy.

Otherwise, I’m off to Austin at the end of the week to give a workshop to the wonderful ARWA, so that should be a blast and a half, because I’ll talk about characters and themes and, I dunno what else, probably Star Wars, and maybe spiders. Maybe it’ll just be eight hours on the Spiders of Star Wars. You don’t know. I’m unpredictable like that. Details here!

And that’s it.

Have a nice week, frandos!
