agh! the background wasn't black.

I think these are a little better.

bubble machines

Shooting bubbles is really hard. It's incredibly difficult to get a nice crisp shot. They never stop moving, and they refract light straight at the camera lens. So, you get all these really funky spots in the exposure. I cleaned my lens a couple of times before I reallized what it was. The only other thing I want to do is reposition the bubble machines so the bubbles fall down the middle of my back drop, rather than shoot up the center. If you look closely at each bubble you can see the machines in them.

I'm suprised mommy gov. hasn't stepped in to stop toys like this from being made. I guess it's just a matter of time.

if he only had a hand.

Don't fire till you see the whites of their eyes.

I've been doing some playing in camera raw lately. I'm liking the results, and the added control in post.

How big are these bricks? Closest guess gets a free kiss from coby, the iso monkey mascot.

puppy

as I buy new toys, I take pictures of coby ont he bed to test them. So, more pictures of the puppy.

models needed

Coby is runninga way from the flash, I need some people willing to sit for a couple of sessions.

couple of obscured shots. I know the bottom one breaks all kinds of rules, but rules were made to be broken.

letting a friend play

I let Cheryl play with my camera for a bit the other night. she took this shot of me that I kind of like. I wish it had been a little tighter shot, and I could have done a better job of moving just my head, but pretty cool none the less.

focus point delema

I seem to always be having trouble with which focus point to use... Thank god I only have 5 to choose from. I dont' know what I'd do if I had a D200, and half a billion focus points.
