Just my thoughts about photography at the time.

Time Lapse.

Now that Flickr accepts video, (causing alot of people plenty of angst apparently) I thought I would try one myself.

It was cut short due to some rain, but I intend to do some more in the not to distant future.

A few people have asked how I did it. Well, it wasn’t exactly high tech. I just sat beside the camera, mounted on the tripod, attached the remote shutter release and clicked it every 10 seconds or so. Apparently you can tether the camera to a laptop and have the computer control it, but where is the fun in that?

Yes, it is true, I have joined the film brigade. I have 4 film cameras, 2 of which I was given, and 2 I got off eBay. I have bought all the chemicals and the gear needed to develop to a negative. I also got myself a cheapo film scanner. The frame in this post is the 1st frame from the 1st film I developed at home. Looking forward to doing more soon.

Water drops have always seemed to hard to get photos of, but now I know, it isnt that hard at all. Good light, nice drops and a macro lens is all you need to produce the goods.

Canon 5D, Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro lens and 24mm Extension tubes.

What is quickly becoming my most popular photo on Flickr, is the lunar eclipse 2007.

Was certainly interesting taking the photos. I had some time to fine tune the process prior to the eclipse starting. It was surprising just how dark it got once the moon was half shadowed by the earth.
