Recently moved my bedside lamp around to a different part of the room. It now casts interesting shadows with my feathers (and illuminates other things).
This is another example of depth of field picture. I tried to focus on the butterfly and the flower it landed on. It was a challenge trying to capture the butterfly because it kept flying away but I managed to capture the moment it landed.
shutter speed: 1/1000
f-stops: 5.0

Went to a local arcade place with some friends. Im trying to bring my camera everywhere i go from now on because i decided on 2 things. #1 im going to make a blog. Why not right? and honestly i dont even care if anyone sees. Im actually not sure if i want anyone to see... It will be filled with my own personal thoughts.Behind every picture is a story and thats what i want to show in my blog. I really want to get in depth of everything i shoot and explain a little more on how i got the shot. Also #2 a recent flickr friend is doing a 52 week project and i really think i should give this a go. Ive already thought about the 365 but thats too much for me to keep up with. So 1 shot a week should be good since i have to manage my blog and work still take care of my wife. Stay tuned :)
In color, this is actually a seemingly boring picture, but I ended up taking it hoping it would really pop in black and white. I loved how the light hit the leaves and figured it might make for an interesting photo in monochrome. Here the reduced depth of field really intensifies the light hitting the first few leaves in the picture. I didn't go down to F/2.8 because I wanted a few leaves in full focus to showcase that sharpness.
In this photo i used a low aperture of 4.5 so that the background was very blurred and because of that the lock and locker are extremely focused drawing your eye to the foreground.
Hard to play pool without it.
I never did find out if there was a storyline or reason for the doctor with the eyepatch...

I didn't go exactly by the rules. Technically, the exposures should have been:
f2 @ 1/2500 (OK)
f2.8 @ 1/1250 (OK)
f/4 @ 1/625 (used 1/500)
f/5.6 @ 1/310 (used 1/250)
f/8 @ 1/150 (used 1/125)
f/11 @ 1/80 (used 1/60)
f/16 @ 1/40 (used 1/30)
I really liked this photo. I had my friend spin the umbrella and took a still shot of it. The umbrella contrasts really well with the background. You can see the comparison in the other photo.
The bright orange is a symbol of warmth, in contrast to the cold weather outside. The orange is in focus.

The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstacy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed. -Krishnamurti
