Photo 365: Day 344 – Scarecrow?
Scarecrow? Not really…
That’s my son enjoying snow this morning. I used intentional blur technique to achieve this effect.
Photo 365: Day 343 – Long Exposure
To be honest this was shot last night…
Had this shot @f/11 for 30sec exposure.
Photo 365: Day 342 – Sweet Bokeh
And my low light experiment continues…
Surprisingly we had a nice weather today and we took it as an opportunity to put some Christmas lighting this evening. So thought I should try few low light shots late this evening.
With my 50mm f/1.4 lens tried some bokeh shots and I thought it came out real nice.
Photo 365: Day 341 – Peeps
Another quick one…
My little one was a good sport this evening. He was willing to share his Peeps for this shot and also willing to pose. But I have to be really quick though 😉
Photo 365: Day 340 – Ornaments
Ornaments ready to be hung.
Photo 365: Day 339 – POM
Another day with lack of inspiration. I wonder if it has to do with the cold weather and lack of sunlight…
Will have to see what tomorrow brings. How’s your day been?
Photo 365: Day 338 – They once ruled the Earth…
Bought this little T-Rex toy for $1.00 at Walmart on Saturday.
When I bought this, I had in mind to try spot lighting/shot with this little guy but thought I should try a silhouette for today’s post.
I’m pretty pleased with the outcome this evening – spent only a couple of minutes on this shot. Besides converting from RAW to JPEG there wasn’t any PP involved.
Photo 365: Day 337 – Frugal cabbage, sweet potato soup
With sweet potatoes hitting 0.10/lb decided to try the Casual Kitchen’s – Groundnut Stew.
This soup turned out really yummy after some minor tweaks to the recipe 😉
For this shot, I decided to go with the top/down POV. Added sweet potato, and cabbage to this composition as these are the key ingredients in this frugal soup.
Photo 365: Day 336 – Brrr…
Brrr…another windy, and cold day here in St. Louis. And day:336 shot to depict the weather in our area.
Photo 365: Day 335 – Portrait
Now that there is limited light available, decided to do something with real low light last night – yes; this was shot last night after I posted my shot for day:334
I got inspired for doing portraits after looking at some of the portrait work by Brhum’ Bhatia – he does an awesome job with portraits.
Anyway, talked to my wife about posing for this shot and she was readily willing…I haven’t done a portrait shot of her for quite some time now.
So had this shot with a single light source – that being from an iTouch app iLlumination. For this shot, I had to set the focus right with the lights ON. Once I had the focus set, I took this shot with my wife’s face lit by iTouch @f/4.5 for 2.0 sec exposure.
My daughter was a great helper for this shot as well. She was the “light” girl last night. By the end of this shoot she whispered, “Oh I don’t mind if you gave me the credit in your blog post”. That made me chuckle – last week she was debating how she doesn’t like getting a credit. She is another regular in-house visitor to my blog post.
