Photo 365: Day 131 – Array of colors

Another experimentation with light… I have this small portable LED mini fan which flashes a colorful pattern when the wings are in motion. For today post, I intentionally had my camera out of focus and took multiple shots of the colorful pattern. I call this array of colors. There is a bonus picture for day […]

Photo 365: Day 130 – Festiva Maxima Peony

It’s another rainy/windy day here in St. Louis and as I already planned to post Peony for Day 130 had to shoot this indoors. Used couple of black cardboards for backdrop and had this shot using the window lighting. To lit the shadows, my wife helped  me with holding the home-made reflector (crinkled aluminum wrap stuck […]

Photo 365: Day 129 – Mother’s day muffins

Mocha muffins – that’s what my daughter and I ended up baking for my wife for this mother’s day. Long time ago I used to write recipes and you can find the recipe for the muffin recipe here. The sweetest thing was my daughter’s note. She wrote “Mom you are very nice! You are sweeter than […]

Photo 365: Day 128 – Cousins?

Alright the title is a bit misleading or inappropriate for this photo…may be it would be apt to put it as D70 Vs D90 – well they’re cousins anyway 😉 One of my good friend visited me this evening and brought his newly bought D90. So we ended up testing few shots this evening under […]

Photo 365: Day 127 – Photo-in-Photo

A fun post for day 127. It was quite a windy day this evening and I had to restrict myself to shooting something indoors this evening. So thought I should try something for fun. As my 2yr old was playing with his play dough, I set my Fuji P&S on a gorillapod and set it […]

Photo 365: Day 125 – Hub

It has been quite some time now since I have shot a subject with long exposure. So for today’s post I tried long exposure on catching the light from a USB hub. Put off  all the lights in the room and had this USB hub powered by a laptop. I had set the hub sit […]

Photo 365: Day 124 – Bloom

When I got home this evening, I took a walk around our yard and saw the yellow roses in full bloom. So decided to have yellow rose as a subject for today’s post. As it was a bit windy this evening decided to cut the bloom and shoot this indoors where I could have more […]

Photo 365: Day 123 – Pencil shavings

I was undecided on the subject for today’s post when I got home this evening. I think my legs were in auto-pilot mode this evening 😉 My legs were leading me to my back yard to take floral pictures but had to restrict myself to shoot on something else. It gets boring after shooting with […]
