June 30 2005

Six Months and all I've got is this!

I tried something different today. Instead of filling up the entire sink, I just filled a small bowl
with water and coloring. I took over 200 shots today and didn't get one *WOW* shot. I think the
bowl was too close to the faucet to get any big splashes. Oh well, I thought this one was OK.

This pitiful shot marks six months of my PAD. I'm halfway there!

Nice work bob! I wonder if you try slowing the shutter speed down to 1/15 sec. using shutter priority, no flash (Try using a reflector for light control) and tipod would help capture more action (Splash). Just a thought! The Road Runner
