Nice shots! I finally got my Pixel King Triggers, Yonguno 565 flashes and Canon 60D. Along with some new glass: 28 - 75 and 70 - 200 to 2.8 on both. Hope to have a few shots from it today.

A stray cat I got a good shot of last summer.

Midnyte,

I like the detail, I just don't like the white bar to me. I'm sure it was hard to take a picture of a stay cat as they can be pretty skittish.

Without further ado, this was from when I took my camera out for the first time and ran into some friends in which I took 10 shots in crappie conditions. Here is two of my son, as I don't have permission from my friends to put up theres.

1)

F Number 5.6
Exposure Program Manual
ISO Speed Ratings 800
Metering Mode Pattern
Flash Flash fired, compulsory flash mode
Focal Length 28
White Balance Auto white balance

All of these bounced in ETTL on camera with Black Foam Thingie (BFT), and with the last one I got a pink cast off a red tube but I thought it set the mode. Virtually straight outta camera as I just add a bit of vibrancy.

Flight hanger is badass^^^


I went out to take some photos today. Must upload some in a few. Most turned out pretty ****. Some are too grainy looking. The weather was dull and cloudy.

Thanks, It's part of a very long running 3D design i've spent maybe 3 years building....

I'm rusty with my cam.

 

[Dr Lee]

if that's rusty.... then i can't wait to see you back on form...

images 2 & 5 are stunning,

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

I guess I'm rusty because I wanted to take some of these images a certain way, but they ended up being different. The last 3 images I turned to b&w at the last minute because the weather is awful here. Gave everything a milky color.

Yesterday I shot a panorama of the beach near my dorm room. I'll have it processed sometime this week so I can post it here. t:

As i had an hour to waste yesterday while waiting for a family appointment to finish, i decided to practice a bit of capturing high speed objects by photographing the trains at the station nearby... (it's safer than giving my sister sugar & trying to photograph her)

I have gotta get me a couple of these...

Okay. A lot of people keep asking me why I haven't replaced my Nikon F100 for a digital SLR yet. I do plan to do that, because that's just the way of the future. But as to why I've kept using my SLR so far, this guy's video sums it up pretty much:

Here's a new panorama I've made:

Red,

Nice Pan! I still haven't even closely wanna try yet, and maybe in the future I'll take a stab at it.

Lunar,

Nice conversion to B&W, IMO.

Still editing these (Haven't sharpened as of yet nor Dodged & Burned), but this is a good preview at any rate. The last two just used one light, with a umbrella with some CTO Gel. The top I used two flashes, shot bare. The 2nd one was one ETTL Trigger.

 

[Lunar_Wolf]

The happy parents is great. I like casual over super posed.

 

[Alistair]

Lunar,

Thanks. I like it that way too, I made 'em laugh right before it which was my intent which brought that out. Her brother jumped into the other one, and I snapped it. It just felt.
