…And let me live among the stars.
Here’s today’s image. I had intended to go down to the beach for today’s picture, but it was way too windy to get the camera out in all that sand blowing around. So, as usual the picture got left till last minute! Not overly happy with this image, there’s too much of a flare around the moon but I like the cloud, it looks good.
50mm, f1.6, 1/25, iso 1600.
Here is today’s picture. It’s something I have been meaning to do for a while but I finally got round to it tonight. I’m quite pleased with it actually, it looks pretty good I think. Nothing much to write about today, so I’ll just post the picture and leave it at that.
50mm, f1.8, 1/6, iso 400. Lit by an LED torch from the underneath.
Today I went to get the girls measured for their bridesmaid dresses. The bridal shop was incredibly busy but they did as much as they could to help us which was lovely. Came home, read some of my book, then went to do the food shop for the week. Tonight I watched AI with Mat, and despite the rain outside being quite a distraction, really enjoyed it and cried lots at the end!!
Today’s picture is my own simulated raindrops (well water hitting other water actually):
55mm, f5.6, 1/200sec, 1600iso.
This is the entry for Jan 17th. Yesterday my computer decided to go kaputt and would not turn on except in safe mode, meaning I couldn’t deal with my photos I took for yesterday’s entry. I tried to upload them from the other computer but it dodnes’t have the right software to deal with my CR2 files. Anyway, here is the picture – continuing along the theme of long exposures and playing with light. There will be another picture added later this evening, for today.
50mm, f10, 6sec, iso 400. Lit by a blue LED pointed at the balls of the cradle.
There’s no real reason for why I decided to use this image today. Really it should be saved for next months but I could always do it again next month I guess. I just decided I wanted to do some painting with light and a heart was the easiest shape for me to draw freehand!
We went to see the Golden Compass today and were pretty disappointed. To be fair, I understand that it would be hard to fit the whole Northern Lights into one film and manage to be faithful to it, but it was so so wrong in places. If you’ve read the book, don’t go to see the film.
Anyway today’s picture is below.
.
28mm, f29, 10 sec exposure, iso 800. No light present, other than the little LED I used to draw the heart.
