So I'm in Buffalo right now, typing this from a cafe near Rand's library. I'm very much enjoying my visit with Erin and Rand. They kindly let me take some pics with my new camera, and I've posted some of these in today's Blathering. It's the first time I've tried any couple portrait photography with my Rebel.

Erin's a photographer's dream -- she's expressive, relaxed, and is able to have fun in front of the camera. Rand, who is usually like Jeff which it comes to having his photo taken, was much more relaxed as a result of being with Erin. :-)

All photos on this page were taken with my Sigma 30/1.4 lens. To reduce the amount of Stuff I was bringing, I opted to leave my other (bigger) lenses at home. I know that some people think me a tad loopy for choosing the Sigma as my walkaround lens but so far, it's still my favourite.

We went to a great Korean BBQ place last night, where pieces of seasoned chicken and beef were cooked on a grill at our table after we were served a large variety of appetizers that included radish kimchee, something I've never had before. Yum.

Anyway, we wrapped up the barbecued bits of meat in large pieces of lettuce along with some rice. Wonderfully messy and VERY good. :-) I'm going to have to look for a Korean BBQ place in Toronto.

I've spent most of today working in the library, taking notes and doing background stuff in prep for my next novel; I'm using Scrivener, taking a ton of notes and starting to build up my character profiles. Looking forward to hanging out with Erin tonight while Rand teaches his class!
