Yep, I’ve started a new blog. I finished the 365 project, so I’m not posting everyday. There isn’t much there at the moment, but I plan to have something new about every week or so. There are already a few new pictures up, so check it out!

Who caught who watching the other, I wonder?

50mm f/2.8     ISO-200     1/500 second

I had been shooting the different plants in this corner of our apartment complex when I looked down and he was only a couple feet away from me. This picture wasn’t cropped at all; I could have reached out and touched the spot where he was.

50mm f/4     ISO-400     1/40 second

Using buttered homemade bread, I toasted it with seasoned salt, garlic, paprika, and a blend of Monterey jack and cheddar cheese. You should try it sometime.

Day 358: Walking and Talking

On my way to the store I saw this guy across the street. I only had time for this one shot, and I think I got it. I really like the way he is framed by the tree, and how he stands out from the lake behind him.

Day 357: Smile!

with one comment

70mm f/5.6     ISO-800     1/100 second

One fun thing about the farmers markets are all the different dogs that I see. I’m not really a pet person, but there are some beautiful animals that walk by. I took a few seconds during a lull in customers to photograph a couple dogs playing near my stand. I didn’t get much other than this shot. It was quite dark and I was shooting f/5.6. Even with ISO-800 I had to brighten the exposure more than 2 full stops in Lightroom. Times like this make me long for the 70-200 f/2.8 lens I plan on buying for myself someday.
