What a weekend...

Oh, where to start? Friday, I was getting ready for work. I adjusted my pants and my back seized up on me. I have been having problems for almost two weeks now with having spasms. This time, it locked up on me. I tried to sit down on my bed and ended up in the praying position, unable to move. My wife brought me an ice pack, and it helped enough so I could lie down on the floor. After being there for about 20 minutes, I was able to stand up and go to my chair. I have been fighting this ever since. I could maneuver around better on Saturday. I could make it out of bed a tad easier this morning without having to roll out like yesterday.

In the afternoon, we had a nice thunderstorm come through the area. I shot video footage of the storm cells coming in and once it passed; I followed it in my car. There was lots of lightning, so I spent over an hour taking storm shots. I made it home, transferred my pictures onto my external hard drive like I do. Got up today, and those images aren’t on my drive. I took some of the best lightning shots and they aren’t there. Poof. I’m trying to recover the pictures. I hoping this works. We shall see.

I was getting footage with my phone. Here is one of the best shots I got. At least I have something to share.

Sorry for the long post. This isn’t my norm, but I wanted to get it out there. Please subscribe to my website or to my YouTube channel, if you haven’t. I would appreciate it.

My phone - my camera with attachable lenses

Since I’m focusing on improving my mobile photography, I invested into some attachable lenses from Moment. I have been following them on YouTube and decided to get some of their lenses and see what I can create with them. They were running a sale at the time, so I got their 1.33 Anamorphic Lens, Wide 18mm Angle Lens, Telephoto 58mm Lens, and Macro 10x Lens. I also got their phone case so the lenses can attach to the phone.

I’m having fun with these lenses. My favorite one so far has to be the Macro lens. I’ve really enjoyed figuring this lens out and seeing what it can do.

If you get a chance, grab a case, lens, and have some fun. I will post pictures from each lens so you can see what I was able to capture with them. I am no way affiliated with Moment or their products. I just like their stuff and wanted to share with you.

I hope everyone has a good one. Peace.
