neat photo off my note 4 on memorial day!

 

another one!

 

sorry for another post, but if anyone is good with photoshop I would love to see my truck in flat black

 

Thought this was a trippy photo

 

nice, I like it

 

Went back to Sparks lake last night since I couldn't get a good sunset photo...

 

It's not a photo, but I got out and shot some aerial video this weekend about 40 minutes from my house.

 

What Drone are you using? I've got a Inspire 1 with a X5 on it now. I finally sprung for the X5 over the X3 since it allows for different lens to be be used.

Sample video of the Inspire that I made a week or so ago.

Was really the wrong time of day to be shooting but we were busy all day long each day so the only time I could fly was late in the evening.

 

Nikon 35mm 1.8 Prime Lens just came in. Ready to try it out.

 

I have it and love it. Very sharp

 

Really neat lens. Shot at f 2.8 just to blur the background and focus only on the flower in the frame.

 

Big fat cat lounging in the back yard

 

I just realized that "photobucket" does a horrible job of removing detail in the pictures. I can zoom in on the cat and he's blurry as hell. The actual picture I can see his individual hairs on his back.

 

So Flickr is slightly better. Still lost some resolution but not nearly as much.

that lens is awesome, I love my 35mm Nikkor Prime, these are some that I've taken that are just awesome. It's amazing how crisp the photo is with this lens

 

dont know how I forgot to add my little 80 into the mix with my 35 prime lol




and here are a few others i've taken with my 55-200mm lens

 

Pretty cool photo of the stars with clouds

1st attempt at light painting with the truck.... gotta figure out how to tone down the headlights and what pattern would be best so the truck can actually be shown...

 

Those of you in the San Gabriel Valley, stay safe from the wrath of the Fish.

 

Okay... So I finally got my adapter to mount my filters on and this was the first shot I took with it (don't be too hard on me lol). I realize this is not the ideal shot you would be taking with it since it is made more for landscape photography and not have houses in the foreground. But I was curious as to what the results would be. This is a completely untouched image shot with a 4 stop graduated filter.

Again... PhotoBucket sucks for detail with online images



I can see 2 things in this.

1: I need a lot of practice lol

2: I think with the right conditions these filters will be an amazing tool

I'm going to order a 10 stop filter so I can take long exposures during the day time to make traffic / etc. disappear among other things. But now I have something else to learn.



*EDIT* Yes I know I have the camera mounted on the mount backwards. I did this last night when taking pictures of the stars. Mounted the other way the back handle only allows the camera to be tilted up about 45 degrees. This mount has "friction" knobs that allow for smooth video which is why I chose it since that is what I will be doing with the camera "most" of the time.
