Mom4squirrels > LEAVES AT NIGHT This is my first attempt at using the bulb setting on my XT. I noticed these leaves which were highlighted by a spot light aimed at our flag. So I got out the camera and gave it a try. I counted off the seconds myself..couldn't read the LCD in the dark,) and I experimented with the number of seconds that the shutter stayed open. This was my favorite. It is untouched as far as enhancement...only sharpened the focus, which has to be done in RAW anyway! Can't wait to try more tomorrow...
Mom4squirrels > BANANA TREE LEAVES IN THE SUN I went to the zoo today and look what I photographed! I have several that I am about to download..all of different tones and textures. I had such a good time trying to photograph this plant from a variety of angles. Please feel free to add constructive comments to any of my photos so I can learn from you all! Here's the link to the other shots of the leaves: http://mom4squirrels.smugmug.com/gallery/1855637
Mom4squirrels > MAGENTA ASTERS I'm a sucker for bees in flowers. Took lots of shots of these nifty flowers with and without the bees. Asters are a sure sign that Fall is approaching..sadly, our flowers will soon be gone.
Mom4squirrels > FLAMINGO SPIT BALLS? I have been on the phone all day with injured squirrel calls...no time to breathe much less take a photo. This was one that I had to eliminate the other day in favor of the banana leaves, so here it is today as my daily photo. I know the flamingo in the back is distracting, but the bigger you make the photo the less you see it. Am taking the phone off the hook now.....LOL
Mom4squirrels > Archival Bee Two days of constant orphan squirrel calls and rain have kept me from the daily photo challenge to myself to give you a new photo of my day. This is one you haven't seen, so rather than have nothing to share, I am sending along a recent but not today's photo of a bee...
Mom4squirrels > TEASEL Sometimes people confuse this plant with Thistle, but it is actually teasel. It is widespread through Ohio. The brown stalks are a sure marker of Fall around the corner. I finally hand held a shot without wiggling and did a lot of playing with dof with my 60mm! We have had rain for 4 days now, so this was taken under threatening skies. It is not cropped. There is a second one too if you want to tell me what you think.. http://mom4squirrels.smugmug.com/gallery/1855637. My husband likes this one. I'm just tickled it is in good focus (seen better in the large format.)
Mom4squirrels > ASTERS IN THE COUNTRY
Mom4squirrels > RED LEGGED GRASSHOPPER Just another critter from the fields in the park. I really liked these guys. They were about 2" long and can they spit "tobacco!" Yuck!!
Mom4squirrels > THE LAST OF THE DAYLILLIES What a fun-filled late afternoon I had today! Thusie knows how I have been struggling with focusing and hand holding shots with my Canon XT (and my 100-400mm IS, L glass lens to name one in particular), so she sent me her trusty Canon 70-200mm..without IS to try. It focused so fast...WOW and in low light!(Good friend isn't she?) Here is just one of the results with the lens..UNCROPPED, Hand held, overcast, very late afternoon shot! I haven't had this much fun in a long long time! The lens is so light I hardly knew it was there...and the L glass...ahhh yes! Thanks Thusie!!! I can't wait until tomorrow! :-) ...now if we can just get my monitor calibrated properly... I will be one HAPPY camper!!!
