July 26: Shooting and Reading

Colorado Springs, CO

While this shot does accurately capture my morning activities, I also want to tell you that it forced me to practice my photographic skills:
1) Mount camera on tripod
2) Take light meter reading
3) Set manual controls
4) Shoot
5) Reshoot with smaller aperture to get desired DOF
6) Load RAW file in PS
7) Fix color balance
8) Crop
9) Post
10) Back to my reading.

BTW, I am enjoying this extra-wide angle lens.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
1/2s f/14.0 at 10.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Man Robin, what long legs you have. Wonderful shot that borders on the risque.

petesie		27-Jul-2005 21:21
Think of all the exercise you got running back and forth to the tripod. Love it!

Guest		27-Jul-2005 16:49
Oooooh, this is great! You might want to wash the bottom of your feet soon! Haha!

Guest		27-Jul-2005 11:38
BTW, is that a case for a 70-200 back there on the counter?

Guest		27-Jul-2005 11:37
Looks like all those skills and activities must have really worn you out! Don't stress yourself, OK? Especially with all that heat out there. Nice job!

Pepe Zyman		27-Jul-2005 06:59
Excellent composition and DOF.

Gary Winters		27-Jul-2005 06:45
My good fellow, you need psychiatric help, soon!

It seems your one day of staying home and doing nothing has turned into two.

Hilarious Robin...can't wait for my next lesson!

ROFL! Good thing you don't have 11 toes! So how's the book-I figured our generation would never know the real identity. Bet it's fascinating.

It's nice how much DOF that lens gives.

J. Scott Coile		26-Jul-2005 20:34
Still hot huh??? Good read.

Are those letters really tattooed on your toes? My 10-22 was delivered today, the DHL man thought I was goofy when I ran out to his truck and babbled like a fool. Kathie
