Yea I have gotten some good stuff with my iPad too. That's great though. How did you change the exposure time though??

 

app called average camera

 

Interesting..

 

Here are some pictures of the moon with the halo from last night.


The moon with Jupiter. Jupiter is the tiny white dot on the bottom left corner.

 

Ever wanted to go the Galapagos? You could with Muench Workshops.

I've gone on a few of Marc's workshops over the years and enjoyed the experience. Utah, Death Valley, Santa Barbara and a few other places. Marc's a great teacher and he picks some great spots to shoot. Not cheap but worth it.

Maybe you'll get lucky and win a spot. Just gotta be 21+

 

Krazie-looking good but I think you should accentuate the Wide Angle. Make the trucks look bigger and cooler

 

well, i'm hoping my days of freelance are coming to a temporary end... just got offered a potential full time for a clothing company heading their photography department...

if negotiations go well, i just may be back to the 9 to 5 grind...

 

Good luck to you Mike.

 

thanks Ian... im gonna need all the luck in the world for this one...

the commute alone is 60 miles one way... ouch...

the job should be fun though... pretty girls all day long... camera in hand 5 days a week... regular paycheck...

more importantly for me, medical benefits... whew....

 

Good luck dude!

 

Well, Imma cross my fingers for you then.

 

That was at 10mm. Couldn't go any bigger and I was laying the camera on the ground. It was all I could do without getting half the picture being just undercarriage.


I'll work the angles a little more and see what I can do.

Thank-you for the compliments. I'm still seeing what this camera can do.

 

Try this. On the right or left front corner of the engine (about a foot away), try and focus on the corner, tilt up or tilt up and pan right-see how the angles change the way the image looks.

The best way to say it is stuff that lens right into your subject and exploit the angles. It's a great lens and does that really well.

 

thanks!

 

that looks soooo cool...

 

just saw this in case anybody here does editting, etc....
