What I've Been Up To

I've been so busy with photography projects and with school and visiting Rachel that I have mistakenly neglected the blogoverse. So as penance, I would now like to share with you some of the highlights of my last couple picture outings.
So we have: A Povertees promo that I think looks pretty good despite horrible sources of light. (1 Shoe mount Nikon Sb-28 and a desk lamp sitting on the floor; all in front of a 10 dollar Wal Mart Flat Sheet!)

Matt and Gianna at Jillian's 18th birthday party:

A picture of the lunches being loaded to take to the homeless for Sack Lunch Fridays:

And a really sweet ultimate frisbee shot:


I feel like every time I pick up the camera, I get better at using it.

Also: Please note that Blogger's compression system causes the colors in the pictures to be dulled a bit. My original files have much more bite to them than do these.

The portrait looks pretty good, it doesn't take a lot of money to get decent lighting. Did you get a shot of the sack lunches focused on the people behind? I like the composition as is but I feel drawn to the people even though they are out of focus. You got that critical moment in the frisbee shot, if you captured before the release or after the frisbee was out of frame it wouldn't be as interesting. Try a little wider crop on that one to give the frisbee the illusion of moving across the frame.

The third picture should be titled,
"Buy a povertee, feed the hungry, and get a girl."

I enjoy these very much, specially the bags. What a pretty young lady little Gianna has grown up into!
