That's a good idea, I batch edit with actions to convert the color profile idk why I didn't think of doing that for the watermark. I need to upgrade LR and figure out how to watermark from there since the newer versions have layers. I keep my watermark layer on top of everything else.

 

I guess I'll post this one I took a few years ago. Sorry for the bad quality, it's from Facebook

 

Well I guess I might be getting the vello wireless shutterboss. I don't really want to spend the $80 on it, but my brother has it and says it's pretty amazing.

When the flash is on you are limited to 1/200 or 1/250 sec due to flash sync speed. If your flash and camera support it you can do high speed sync all the way to 1/8000 of a sec.

I believe that duck you are trying to identify is a redhead.

 

Shot these two this morning out coyote hunting.

 

What's the reasoning for staying so high?

 

Ah, Okay. I see what you're saying. To stop any sort of motion you need to bump up ISO for a faster shutter speed, thus sacrificing having some color grain. Usually I try not to go above 400. I try to stay at 100 if I can.

 

I see you're using a t2i, it seems to handle noise pretty well, especially if you have the in can notice reduction on. WAY BETTER, than my D90

 

Yeah sounds about right. I have that when I'm taking panning shots like this.

Practice makes perfect!

 

Thanks man! I actually know a bunch of the pro guys in formula drift, I sent Vaughn a print of this actually, and another of Ryan Tuerck and Chris Forsberg to each of them. They come out a few times a year to englishtown raceway for specialized drift events and they're a blast to be around.

I know what you mean about that haha, I just use my tripod as a mono pod by expanding one leg, got a fluid video head on top of the legs, also great for panning.

 

You should try around 1/100 or so for those shots while panning. They come out awesome but are a PITA.



This is the sharpest one I could get, still nowhere near what I wanted.

 

Whats glass do you shoot with- that duck is really crisp.

 

Love the shot gage!

Again beautiful Ben.

 

Took a few kitty shots this morning. I had to crank the ISO so dang high to keep the shutter reasonable. He was fairly cooperative.

Mine was shot at around 1/60. Small track, drifting isn't as fast paced around the corners haha.

 

Yeah sorry I finally got a chance to look at your photo on a real screen, awesome.

 

Thanks man! Yours is rad too! I'd kill for a porsche

 

Ben someone should donate a 400 2.8 to you, those shots are awesome! I've got a bead on a 400 5.6, hoping it can work out!!! Would be a great way to start the new year

Gage, great view you captured there. That might be a bear with all the wind in the open like that haha.

TJ, those eyes! Nice.

 

Took some photos on my two hour drive home today in good ol' South Dakota winter so I thought I'd share a few.
