2026-05-12Hello!I was hesitant to take this image, because it's just some leaves that I see all the time. But I'm sharing it today because there's a chance that there's a reader that doesn't see this all the time. I go to gardens and see flowers that aren't common in my area, because they're colorful and novel and...

2026-05-10Hello! I'm up to no good again, staring at my screen and hoarding interesting internet stuffs to share on this here website. I'm planning to celebrate Day 100 with One Thousand Links of cool posts and works online. If you want to promote something interesting you made, now's the time to contact me.The lens...

2026-05-09Hello!This fancy steakhouse had outdoor seating, with decorative flowers and a US flag. I know that neighborhoods such as Little Italy exist, but I wonder what a Little America would look like — immigrants from the US migrating to another country and settling in a neighborhood.As a country, the US is...

2026-05-08Hello! Flowers are pretty, so I'll be sharing a few photos of the blooming flowers throughout the month of May. I started on May 1, and this is the second photo.These aren't grown wild, though. This was in a residential area that was next to a bunch of other cultivated plants.Finally, an article by...

2026-05-07Hello!This is a close-up photograph of the glamorous louvers of the science laboratory from before. These things are about forty feet tall, and have held up for a few years now. They're installed outside — you can see the clouds through these structures — and I wonder how the architects and builders tested...

2026-05-06Hello!As I write this, a weird light is coming from outside my bedroom.Oh wait, that's the moon. Damn, I'm up late tonight.This is a different kind of pollution to the cans of trash littering the campus. I'd argue that this is worse, because it's liquid and difficult to clean up.It's reasonable to ask...

2026-05-05Hello! First, a technical note: the homepage now only loads 30 images instead of 50 images. It used to have an infinite limit, but I'm on Day 88 now and I really don't want people scrolling so long — it probably causes accessibility nightmares. As always, a linked-text list is available for all...

2026-05-04Hello! You know, given that today marks the start of exam week, I should be giving myself an excuse to write shorter articles so I can really crunch on my study materials. I forgot what a capacitor is, and I still don't know if Jim Crow is a real person. Off to a great start!Anyway, this article might be...

2026-05-03Hello! First, a technical note: I bought a third domain name, and I already regret it. Come check out dingusberry.com and tell me what I should do with it.When you use a shallow depth-of-field (something like f/2.8) you are able to separate the background from your subject, with a decent falloff and...

2026-05-02Hello! A reference to the Disney movie Mary Poppins Returns, my favorite movie.I love when things line up like this. Trees on both sides, the gray sidewalk almost straight to the horizon, with slightly hilly landscape. It might be a bit weighted to the right, since the bright gray road on the right is a...

2026-05-01Hello! It's May now!Last night, I performed at a school concert with a jazz band, where everyone gets to watch me struggle with my cheap old electric guitar. Seriously — the thing's nearly a decade old at this point and the plug is loose; no amount of tightening seems to stick for more than a day or...
