It’s my new photography companion. They say it’s a good idea to try to slow down. If I’m out somewhere trying to take a photograph gonna do some solves while surveying the view. Take fewer photographs. Take better photographs. Average solve time currently just under two minutes. I’m certainly not a speed cuber! This image is a quick abstract of a Rubik’s cube made on 31 July 2019 for The Raw Room photography challenge. Captured with AFS Micro Nikkor 60mm on D850 at f3.8 1/10 ISO64. Illuminated with a pair of LED desk lamps (one from each side). This image has NOT been cropped and any editing is minimal.

There's probably only one thing on Diesel's mind. White eyes. Ok, two things, White Eyes and Fody's and the warmth of the sun. Wait that's three. And come to think of it, since Diesel is female, I think She should probably be re-named Dieseline! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a0d5ecc6f4ca39b8be3a7ba/1531571046479-04NIGF324BHR017ILVMB/DSC_2655.jpg Pix Escapes Blog - Two weeks in mad-land: glimpses from the 1st 3 days Mid-day: Justin and I took a walk with our cameras.
