October 17, 2003

I put my Canon 10D on 3200 ISO just to see what it would do. I was hoping for a grain that would remind me of old BW Tri X I used to shoot. I was very happy with the 'gritty' rendition. Jonah was making up his own songs on a keyboard, and this was the look of concentration he had on his face the whole time. It was very interesting to watch him. He was not looking at his hands/fingers playing the notes, but he was staring into space, in his own little world. His intensity was amazing to watch, especially for a three year old.

Stunningly gorgeous, artistic capture, JD - WOW! :>

JD: I love grainy images and this one is greatly framed - it shows the concentration/ oblivion (whatever it is, kids can be hard to read!) to a tee.

JD: Not just this one, but you have some wonderful pics, particularly of children. You've really captured the expression of thought here, but do I sense a slight element of fear in his left hand eye? I like your gallery, including the monthly designs, although I have a preference for detailed captions not being shown with the thumbnails. I've asked 'slug' the P-Base owner, to modify things so I can link more names, including yours, on my POTD page. Your work is quite special~~~Ray.

Thanks, Wes. The grain was pretty good out of the camera shooting at 3200 ISO. I did add a slight amount of noise in photoshop just to enhance it a little. I love shots like these of my kids. They are so un-traditional, and I have a feeling they will be our favorites when our children are grown!

You've really captured that 'intensity' in this photo. The film-like grain is an added bonus!

Thanks to both of you! I really like the way the grain came out on this one. Now I just have to remember to drop my ISO down from 3200 to 100 before I shoot a bunch of pictures tomorrow!!
