Haha, I know I posted some of my jeans routing cabinet doors, and another with some crown backer in the background. This is an older one from last year's stf contest. Face frames were in progress. I had to flute the shit out of them and cut in some of those rosettes.

It's hard to remember pics in the moment, mostly because people are always popping their heads in.

[jyoni]

I don't mean to whore out my craft now that someone asked, lol. But these are just some final pictures of that project, since that pic is so small. I really, really wish the guy would have taken my advice to have the adjustable shelves fluted.

My jeans and I worked, and in one of our gardens found a rare ground orchid that had come up volunteer, in full bloom:

Said hello to cLavin:

Visited the Vault exhibit at Levi's headquarters:

Later we worked on a vintage horsehide jacket from the '40s that was in pretty dire need of a cleaning (yesterday) and conditioning (today) with Leatherique:

Today my jeans were driving home from an appointment with my financial advisor and I noticed an open door at an abandoned lumber yard, South St. Paul. Well, it wasn't the most interesting thing in the world to shoot, but I got some decent shots today.

yup.

[PeterParker]

This is a great photo. Nice work!

Love the floor boards. As always must spread.

[redX]

yup.

look! free furniture!

[-Z-]

oh I considered taking those chairs...there were a bunch of them. but I really don't have anywhere to put anything. there was more of it around too, and I'd love to see my wife's reaction when I begin showing up with random crap i've salvaged!

I'm just hoping I find a real "vintage" pair of Levis in a workers locker at some old factory of something, that would be cool as fuck. but very doubtful.

[fre-co]

If those chairs were leather, I'd have them in a heartbeat

[ThinFinn]

^well to me it does look like it's leather...so go for them!

[-Z-]

There were alot of them!

who wants a chair!?

[ihatebrianwilliams]

these look like they could make some cool coasters. Can't really tell the size of them though. They make damn cool picture.

[krakatu]

@-z- nice pic!! rep'ed

[jyoni]

I'll take a chair. I'll take em all. If company asks why the chair fetish, I'll just tell them I grew up poor without any chairs around.

I have another post from today, and I'm going to Redbull Flugtag tomorrow, so i'll have another post from that...i'm gonna hold off posting today's until later due to the massive Z post overload this thread has gotten lately!!!! but i will say that today's photos were shot on the cheapest Canon lens you can buy!

got some thinking to do...I may just return this tomorrow and pop for the f1.4 version, but at 4x the cost, i'm not sure its worth it for only build quality, IQ is about the same. Today I felt like this thing was going to break if I manually focused with it!

if you DO want today's pictures...let me know and i'll post them. a bit of industrial / urban photo mixed with some portrait work of the family (my wife has agreed to make her first sufu appearance) and a wonderful twin cities sunset...

[braid]

Z, check out this comparison between the 1.8 and 1.4. I believe the 1.4 is a finer lens...

Z, here's a link to some reviews and comparisons for all Canon primes.

[ranonranonarat]

price for the 1.4 might be more but if feels so much better in the hand. the build and everything else including it being faster justifies the price. but then again you could always buy an extra pair of jeans for the money....

[aleopold]

^ now that is a dilema... denim? or glass? hmm......
