April 2011 Potluck

  • This was a fun shot to take. A little flash to get Bruce's face in focus, but a long shutter drag to blur the background. Since you can see the fridge through Bruce's jacket, he moved too. I switched to black and white because a lot of this image is overexposed (and yellow).

  • Poor Steve has a cold so he didn't blow out his candles. He waved a piece of cardboard instead, and it worked.

  • Fun with translucent desserts: the macro shot at f/45. Micha suggested an entire series of these, using Jell-Os of each color of the rainbow. I may do just that!

  • Here I've shot Brian in solely ambient light without a tripod in a dark corner of the house. Pretty good lens, the 24mm f/1.4.
