After 10 PM, is the only time I get to play with my camera, since my daughter has become so very active and engaging.
Also since the weather is so bad, we didnot get to go out so much to take any "real" pictures. So the only way to stay in touch with my camera is to play with it after 10 PM, when I am officially retired for the day and that is when my ME time begins.
So a few of them I captured in the past 2 weeks after Sujaya's bedtime are in this post.
Those were the "oil shots" assignment that I found in one of the photography forums and decided to try it. Not a bad try, but since it was shot in low light, one can see the pictures are so noisy. Now that I have got my lightscoop, may be I should try this again. (?! May be, since I have a long list of to try items)
Again a moon shot.
And then the ones that I have been thinking to take for a long time. Flowers in absolute black background. With a little bit of setting up, I got "not so bad" shots of the flowers. Though the flowers clearly look a little tired, since it was raining so badly for the past couple of days and they were completely soaked/drenched.
Since I also got my lightscoop, just this afternoon, I dint want to miss taking a picture with it. Also I dint want to miss macro of the flower. So right before I cleared things, I tried macro with lightscoop, and it was great, since the pressure for me to hold the camera steady with a slower shutter speed was fairly reduced with flash. I loved it. And here are a few of those.
Hoping to come up with real pictures in the next post and not any "table top" , "from the kitchen counter", or "after 10 pm assignments" kind. Wishing the weather would co-operate too.
