It was two days today

November 9, 2009

Today was Carl Sagan day, and also the day the Berlin Wall fell.  What a fitting combination.

From my photo album, Illinois State University

And today was many other days, which we will know about, or never know about.  How many days are there, in a day?

(Photo is unrelated to either or any of those days; just something I saw yesterday that I thought was cool and wanted to share with you.)

    It is a fitting coincidence.

    I’m not much for “days,” myself.

    Today is a day I’m alive on this earth, that’s about it.

    It is a cool photo that pulls at the mind to create a story explaining it.  Thanks for sharing!

    Not to mention, we have run out of days, so many of them have to be more than one “Day” at a time.

    I thought we were going to run out of days on 21 December next year…

    Really nice photo.  BTW, the E-P2 with available EVF will be available within a month or two.  Still on the fence … I’ll prolly end up with an M-4P or Zeiss-Ikon M.

    This photo was taken through a tinted window with my Pentax W60, an excellent camera.  Truly pocketable, water resistant (important given the number of small cameras I’ve destroyed by being too stupid to come in out of the rain) and surprisingly high image quality.  Visit the photo album linked above for a sample, and realize it’s a camera the size of a deck of cards, with a non-extending lens.

    For a larger camera, I’m afraid the folding viewscreen of my Canon S5-IS trumps almost any other feature.  Yet Canon is not my first choice for image quality so I’m hoping for that feature on an Olympus, Nikon, or Pentax 4/3.
