Spring and a New Lens
Of Montreal
The Party's Crashing Us
Ah, it's spring in Cambridge...the weather is perfect, and the end of the school year is just around the corner. Classes end on Thursday, and next week I have a final in 8.022 (E&M with Theory) on Monday, and a final in 18.03 (Differential Equations) on Thursday. Between now and then I have a paper due for Graham's Artist in the World seminar, and Lee's Ancient Greek Philosophy and the Birth of Mathematics class.
Then on the 31st I will be leaving for Uganda once again, this time for two months, and funded by the MIT Public Service Center.
While there, I will be keeping a blog at uganda.mit.edu. You should check it out.
Anyway, so today I got my first uber awesome lens (that isn't the default lens that comes with an SLR). It's a Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 lens. So far I've only dealt with f/2.8 at most, which provides a good range of depth of feild, but the f/1.4 is simply amazing. Just take a look at these new pictures...

Thank you, thank you for the beautiful flowers real ones and faces. Greetings from all your family in Edmonton. We are starting our way home Thursday morning (may 17) through Calgary (lunch with another of Dad's cousin) and then through Spokane back to North Bend.
