Day 11/365 Dora with her Jeep, originally uploaded by mssphotos.
My daughter was playing with her Dora Jeep and I thought I will quickly set up to take a snap of this. The setup was no different from my previous product photography
But this time it was slightly different with the settings. Used manual focus with ISO 200, 50mm, f/16 and 1/180 sec with manual flash operated at 1/8.
Day 10/365 – Snow Fall, originally uploaded by mssphotos.
This photo is shot about 1 hr back. Here in Binghamton its a snow storm alert starting Tuesday night ending till Thrusday night. Very cold and this is my first try going out in the snow to get some photos. I took this shot using 70-200mm lens at 81mm, ISO 200, f/5.6 and 1/180 sec. I increase the Exposure compensation by +2 stops.
Day 9/365 – Path To The Woods, originally uploaded by mssphotos.
This shot was taken at the BInghamton University Nature Preserve as part of my foliage project. In the morning about 7:00 to 8:00 AM, at ISO 400, 70mm (using 70 – 200mm lens), f/8, and 1/45 sec. I believe playing around with the brightness and contrast a little bit until I am satisfied
Day 8/365 – New Year 2010, originally uploaded by mssphotos.
This photo was shot at the New Year 2010 celebration at a friend’s house. I used 50mm lens with on camera flash. I did not do any post processing, this photo is right out of the camera
Day 7/365 – Moon, originally uploaded by mssphotos.
On a full moon day I tried to capture but failed several time with over exposed. Finally after reading some articles online this is what I did.
The moon was shot several stops under exposed. Then using the Canon DPP software, increase the contrast to bring the exposure back and also played with brightness a little bit. This helps to make the background solid black and highlights the moon to the audience giving more details to the craters, etc.
With canon T1i, ISO 200, taken at 200mm using 70-200 mm lens, at F/10, 1/200 sec.
