I called Calumet to try to rent their longest telephoto lens this afternoon, but obviously I was too late and their 400/2.8L had been rented… So I had to use my 70-200/2.8L instead.

FT.com / Companies / Media & internet – Microsoft in talks to buy Facebook stake:
While talks were still in the early stage, these people said that Microsoft was considering an investment of $300m to $500m for a 5 per cent stake of the company. Google is also said to be interested in an investment.
Amazon MP3, DRM-free music download
By now I’m sure you’ve read about Amazon’s new service. Looks like they encode with variable bit rate at 256kbps average, not bad. Price is lower than iTMS too. (between 89 to 99 cents). They even have a Amazon MP3 Downloader for easy download. Pretty nice.

kindda hung over half of today from too much Blue Label last night, and then did a little bit of shopping at Barneys. I am in lust with that black Rick Owens jacket (you know which one)… Still couldn’t figure out how to rock it with the hood buttoned to the jacket, but it’s a sick piece for sure… finally tried on some Carpe Diem boots too, I need size 40, so if anyone knows some for cheap let me know!! shit they were nice…

Some shots from my new digicam, it’s alright, I’m not wow’ed by it or anything, anything above ISO 1600 is really noisy. But it’s def way better than the SD630 I used. Also keep in mind I’ve post-processed all of these shots, only slightly, but they are by no means straight from the camera.
