Hardware vs Software


Sometimes we lose sight that hardware and software, while cooperative, are no necessarily interdependent. Case in point, my BlackBerry Passport. When the Passport first came out, it boasted a high-end camera and a wonderful set of specs. Unfortunately the software that came with the initial offering was atrocious. It couldn't take  proper pictures to Save it's life. Now unfortunately, while it did try to improve the software, the current offering still remains a little better than marginal; it's improved a fair bit but it's still not perfect. Secondary software however has managed to make the most of the current hardware,allowing for some truly wonderful pictures in less than ideal conditions 

Case in point, this was taken over my head, single take, no processing, no special settings.

Mushroom farm


I happened upon a display of mushroom farms at a grocery store a while back.  Oyster mushrooms from a company called Back to the Roots. Www.backtotheroots.com  I just had to pick it up for our older daughter, who loves mushrooms.

It took a while to get around to starting it, and this is the first crop. 

Once it starts going, it grows FAST!

The Rack

It's actually called a negative tension table.

The shirt he's wearing says "I'm tired and my back hurts."  The girls got it for him for Christmas.

Very appropriate.
