Photo 385: Day 8 – 2 trees at dusk

Had to take my daughter to her Math class tonight. While killing my time I took this picture. Used my “travel” Fuji F30 to take these trees at dusk.

Photo 365: Day 7 – Red snow berries in snow

Usually I shoot in aperture/shutter priority mode, but  had to take this is manual mode as the camera exposure was confused by the snow. I thought this came out quite good – I like the contrast between red berries, green leaves, and white snow.

Our garden gnome buried in snow. Usually I shoot in aperture/shutter priority mode, but  had to take this is manual mode as the camera exposure was confused by the snow 🙂

Photo 365: Day 6 – Colorful Sprinkles

I was going through our pantry looking for a subject for today’s post. I came across these Wilton sprinkles and thought it should be a good subject with good color contrast . I guess it turned out OK 🙂

Photo 365: Day 5 – Ripe raspberries

Another macro capture using my Nikon 60mm macro lens. Personally I feel red objects on pictures kind of burns out and ruin the picture. I took over 20 snaps and liked this one better than the others.

Photo 365: Day 4 – Colorful flexi straws (bonus picture)

Here is a bonus picture for day 4.

Photo 365: Day 4 – Colorful flexi straws

Picked up these colorful flexi straws while doing grocery shopping last weekend and it worked out for today’s post. Used a slinky to hold them together and used my 60mm macro to capture this.

Photo 365: Day 3 – Christmas candies

Got these candies on sale at the grocery store yesterday. What better way to enjoy the candies – take pictures and eat ’em 🙂

Photo 365: Day 2 – Ripe pomegranate pearls

Macro capture of ripe pomegranate pearls.
Here is a brief summary on how this was captured:
Reversed the 50mm prime lens and used a reverse ring adapter BR-2A to mount it to my D70.  Then mounted the camera on my monopod to capture these pearls. SB-600 flash was used and light was bounced of the ceiling.
