2 Chronicles 16:9 “For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will surely have wars.”

Last week I was testing out the Sigma 150-600 and the Nikon 200-500 at the Phillies Game. I had the pleasure of sitting in one of the greatest seats ever to watch a baseball game from. You can’t buy tickets or even get to this spot from the stands, you have to get there from the field. This spot is right next to the Phillies dugout and so close to the on deck circle that you can reach out and touch the players.
To be honest I always made sure my camera was pointing out so if I foul ball comes off to the side that it would hopefully hit the lens and not me.
An image like this is not easy to capture. You have to somehow have your timing be spot on and your camera capturing the right amount of frames in hopes that you get the ball on the bat. This is where something like a mirrorless camera could possible make shots like this much easier being that they shoot at 15 or more frames per second.
I will be working on the head to head between the two lenses in the next month. I want to make sure to take my time and do these reviews right.

Settings wise when you have to take into consideration that you may be shooting at 6.3 if you are zooming which means you need to bump your ISO in order to give you a fast enough shutter speed to freeze the action. This is one of the issues with slower lenses like this, you have to bump the ISO and in low light situations you’re going to have to push most cameras to their limits. Beyond that you aren’t able to get the smooth buttery bokeh as easily with lenses like this. More in the future.

This is not my photo. It was processed as part of a "RAW file of the week" challenging at FroKnowsPhoto.com.
I think I'm getting pretty good mileage out of that little Gandalf Arrives set.
Happy Birthday, Frodo!
There are snapshots and then there are photographs, this in my opinion is a photograph. (more on that below)
Before the Popes visit on Saturday I walked around the city looking to capture images of whatever presented itself. While walking back down the Ben Franklin bridge which was closed to cars, I see Jaleel King rolling his way towards me.
I snap off a few frames of him with his classic smiling face before he comes to a stop and I take two more. Little did I know one of those frames would turn out to be one of the all time favorite photos I have taken.
The funny thing is, during my first go through I saw three images of Jaleel that I thought were good and told a nice story. But when I came upon this image unedited I thought something could be there.
As I started to process the RAW file and converted it to black and white I simply had to stop. You know how people say you get "the feels", this gave me the feels. The edited image simply stopped me in my tracks. It came to life, it spoke to me, it felt like I captured the essence of Jaleel.
This is what I mean when I say there are snapshots and then there are photographs. A photograph stops you in your tracks and illicit's some type of emotion. You know them when you see them.
Jaleel is one of the nicest persons I have ever met. He always has a warm smile on his face and a BIG ASS hug waiting for whoever wants one. He has a sense of humor about his situation and doesn't let very much get him down. Honestly I have never heard him complain about his situation. Think about that the next time you want to complain about something.
Now let's me breakdown this image. I love how Jaleel is the entire focus of the image yet he is not looking at me at all. It makes you wonder what is he looking at, what's there. It's such a natural and relaxed look. His hands are on his wheels, a cameras is around his neck and there's a smile on his face.
I love where he's at in the frame, I love how the background is blown out enough to keep the focus on Jaleel but not be distracting. The shadow on the ground is a nice subtle detail and the metal separation of the bridge seems to work.
What gets me the most is the way the Black and White feels. It just feels right, the tones and contrast fit my style and the image. I did flip back and forth with the color a few times but color didn't seem to give me the same feeling.
I consider this to be one of the best photos I have ever taken. It's personal to me which probably gives it more meaning.

This was taken during the last big chill/blizzard here in NJ. The Winter is beautiful and all in a very simple, Zen-like way.....but I'm telling you, the only ice I want to see for the rest of the year is what'll be floating in my cocktail glass.
