Careful, Or I’ll Fall 184/365: Macro/Close-up

without comments

My 7 year old daughter looked at this picture and said "Wow, look at all that Bokeh!"  I guess she’s been listening to my talk. :)

I shot this this morning using my extension tubes as I don’t have a macro lens.  I used tube 1 and 2.  For $8 shipped to me, I think I got my money’s worth out of these things.

Strobist: Single flash above and camera right held by my lovely wife, snooted with a rolled-up newspaper. See, print journalism isn’t dead! Fired with CyberSync’s. Flash 1/32 power, the rest is in the EXIF.

180/365: Safety

without comments

My kids are very good at always wearing their helmets when they ride their bikes.  I must admit, when I was a child, I didn’t.  I’m not even sure they had them.  That would have saved me quite a bit of pain. :)

174/365: Late

without comments

I had a tough time coming up with a good shot for this subject.  In the end I decided to pull out the flash and see what I could do.  I sure saw it looking a lot better in my head!  Oh well, that’s how we learn I suppose.

Strobist: Single flash through an umbrella camera left.

173/365: Commute

without comments

I’m very lucky, I work .4 miles from my home.  My commute is very minor, in fact, I can walk my commute in a matter of minutes.  This is a view of the rush hour traffic that I only hit once I get on my street. :)

Kamas 163/365: Neon

without comments

I really like the town I live in.  I consider myself very fortunate to be able to live here and interact with the wonderful people that also call it home.

Melts My Heart 161/365: Smile

with one comment

Headshot of my daughter.  It was hard to get this shot in the noon day sun, but we moved to the shade and used a silver reflector to fill in the shadows on her face.  I picked this tree as a background because it creates nice bokeh dots. :)  It is Wednesday right?

Dizzy 159/365: Spin

without comments

My son was spinning as well, but my favorite shot we took was of him no longer being able to spin.  Of course, to him, the world was still spinning when this shot was taken.
