Foto Friday: Models Rule
Inspiration: in honor of the first day of BreyerFest. Model: from my adopted herd [Surprise!]. Technical bits: Taken on auto. I tried to shoot on aperture priority [Recommitment, pages 54-55] for a shallow depth of field. The results made me want to heave the camera. The theory was that I pick the aperture and thenContinue reading “Foto Friday: Models Rule”
Foto Friday: Or Not
Still haven’t gotten started on the photo project [Recommitment]. Or written any more Off Topic posts. I’ve even fallen off on gratuitous cat snapshots. Where will the Internet find cute cat pictures if I don’t supply them? I couldn’t begin to tell you where my time goes. Folks out there have careers and compete. IContinue reading “Foto Friday: Or Not”

The suitably-sized one that I bought instead does not have the different shootingContinue reading “Foto Friday: Equipment”

Foto Friday: Do You Know Where Your Towel Is?
Rodney prepares for Towel Day on Sunday. He’s a hoopy frood. Technique notes: taken in Portrait mode in an effort to imitate aperture priority/shallow depth-of-field. Photo project [Recommitment] may have to wait for if/when I get a real camera. Point & Shoot is not as adjustable as I thought.
