There was a bag of those little genetically modified oranges at my house the other day; you know the ones, they have loose skin for easy peeling, no seeds, and are perfectly segmented. Anyway, i love them and love to try to remove the peel in one piece. This one was quite successful so i tried to Frankenstein it back together with staples. Then i let it sit on my window sill for a day and photographed what happened next, below is the result…

I thought this was a fun experiment and may do more photo series on decay in the future, as always check back here for updates.

Here is an update to my running series documenting my collection of cameras. You can see the previous post here.

I spent the morning running errands, on the way I hit up a few local thrift stores, they are always fun and sometimes they have good camera gear. The first stop at Savers was ok. They had a 55mm Canon lens, and a crappy zoom lens, decided to but Highlander on VHS instead. Next stop at the Goodwill was much better. They had this old Nikon EM with a 50mm f/1.8 Nikon lens, it also has a battery pack/motor drive attached, i had to have it. I don’t have a 50mm lens for my Nikon system yet, and since it’s the classic focal length i bought it up. Also had a cool battery pack for an off camera flash, but it was missing the charging cord, passed on that. The EM was marketed as an entry level SLR that only has an aperture priority mode to make use easy for the uninitiated. The camera body is fairly cheap and will likely sit on the wall, however, since Nikon never changed their mounting system (shame Canon) i put this beauty onto my Nikon DSLR and will be using it frequently.
