I was going through the hard drive trying to make room and rediscovered an old folder entitled Blog Posts! So here are some that have been sitting around for a bit.
I may have posted this one before, but I really like it. I think I used a polarizing filter for the first time. I got lucky.
I worked pretty hard to get this image. It is an acrylic frog and I wanted to get a glow under the bottom. How do you think I do you think l did?
I went to one of the early drum circles this year and saw this really cool study in color!
I have started a project photographing various old things I found around the house.
I think this is a female Eastern Bluebird. At any rate, I call this image "WHAT what???"
And then there are Humming birds
I have been trying to stop the wings from being blurry. They beat so fast. Well, even though the fasted shutter speed is 1/8000th of a second that is not fast enough. I did a little research and learned that if i used a flash unit, I could freeze those wings.
It turns out that a flash unit sends a set amount of light per flash. The difference is how long the light stays on. Well, my flash sends a beam of light at 1/32000 of a send. This is strong enough to over shadow the ambient light and mostly freeze those wings.
