Upgrading, and staying on the forefront of technology.
I envy Ned Ludd.
I lost my cheap tripod in the hubbub of moving (misplaced, is more accurate), and my good tripod is at somebody else's house, I think (oops). Lighting is a hack, and could have been better (even with what I had: one 60W lamp from above, one freestanding flashlight from the left, and a mirror partially reflecting the lamp from the front left (illuminating primarily the faces of the three mobiles).
To be fair, there are actually three things in this picture still in use, only because what I wanted to use are missing or on loan. Speaking of things on loan, I'm missing three phones that I wanted to sprinkle about the picture ...
I also don't know where my M505 or Vx are. Basically, I just wanted to see how much stuff I just had laying around not being used. I also wanted to put my film point+shoot next to the digital one, but it seems to have grown legs as well.

| You have definitely met the topic of indulgence :-) but I think there's a little too much. To use the photo-critic style of some things I've read, my eye has nowhere to rest. |

| This fits the theme, but the arrangement of so many items just becomes awkward and messy; the objects look like they were arranged for a TV game show, I don't get any sense of strong composition or design in their placement. The harsh lighting and shadows hasn't helped either. I think this is a case of "less is more" - try with just two or three items, in an arrangement that either looks more artistic, or more "natural" like they belong together. |
