Played Around With That Sunset Shot

I got to goofing around with the sunset shot I posted the other day, no real idea with where I was going with it just goofing off, and I decided I liked what I came up with.

Blowing Out The Sunset

The weather around here has been a bit miserable lately, but today marked a wonderful change with temps in the mid 20’s and it was wonderfully crisp and sunny. As is usually the case on days like today I took a spin around town on my bike and as is also usually the case IContinue reading “Blowing Out The Sunset”

Lantern Light

Got an idea for a new photo and decided to do a couple test shots before actually trying the real shot out. And I thought this test pic of a paraffin oil lantern in my apartment turned out good enough to share. Hope you like it.

Driftless

Have I mentioned I live in farm country? Eau Claire’s at the northern end of the Driftless area, which is mostly small small towns and small (by modern Midwestern standards) farms. And lots of rolling hills. This was taken about 10 miles south of town.

Candle

This was just me playing around trying to see how slow of a shutter speed I could use and still get a sharp image. But, I thought it turned out kinda cool and worth sharing,

UWEC Dorm

I’m, generally, not one for tweaking with photos much. But, I do like this quite heavily edited shot of one of the dorms on the University Of Wisconsin at Eau Claire’s campus and the Chippewa River.

I’m a bit of Paprika Fiend/ Macro Lens’s Aren’t Just For Macros

I might need to do a stock up seeing how I’m down to only three kinds of paprika and two of the jars are just little ones. Yeah, I’m a bit of paprika fiend. I haven’t been using my DSLR that much this year and when do I usually use a wide angle zoom onContinue reading “I’m a bit of Paprika Fiend/ Macro Lens’s Aren’t Just For Macros”

Water Street Bridge

The last photo from my last session of night shots. The Water Street Bridge tends to give my camera fits as, for some reason, it’s hard to get the white balance right and I never think to bring a white sheet of paper along with me to manually set the white balance.

Playing With Dots

This is always a fun little trick to play around with.

Ooo… I Like This One

I didn’t get much sleep on election night and ended up accidentally falling asleep for a couple hours in the late afternoon on Wednesday. Which meant that when bedtime came around I was wide awake. So, I grabbed my camera and tripod and went out to kill a couple hours taking night shots. Tonight wasContinue reading “Ooo… I Like This One”
