I really dig those old department store guitars; they seem to have a lot of soul. Lots of tunes played on those old things.

I was surprised at how good the wood resonated for such a cheap guitar...not a $2000-3000 Martin of course, but it sounds good enough for what I'm using it for. Playing around with my new macro lens:

Keep practicing. Soon you'll be able to get it where it's not just a big blurry shit pile.

Instead of slowing your shutter speed, raise your ISO. Needs to be at least 1/60 or so, unless you're Muhammad Ali. Try ISO 400.

Thanks for the help, Fallen. Still not the best pics, but a lot better and easier to take. For you "creative geniuses" that are going to comment on my ties, I realize that they aren't very good...thanks.

Interesting tying location, just make sure you don't mix tying recipes with cooking recipes!

Saw this car sticking out of the side of a mountain above the entrance to an abandoned mine while out exploring with by kids.
