Reflections Study - Mooring Tower
Date: 29.06.09 14:51 Shutter speed: 1/640 Exposure program: Aperture priority
F-stop: f/6.3 Aperture value: f/6.3 ISO speed ratings: 200 Focal Length: 55mmDrab drab drab! I don't really like this kind of shot. Perhaps if I had wellies I would have had more fun up close and personal with the big smelly mooring tower. As it was I had my white birkenstocks on and wasn't going near the Thames low tide muck in them. I've tried to add a bit of 'drama' with a 50% Gaussian blur overlay. Not sure its doing anything for or against it. Will go back and visit smelly tower at a better time of day me thinks.
Reflections Study - Truck Windscreen
Date: 29.06.09 17:59 Shutter speed: 1/1600 Exposure program: Manual
F-stop: f/4.5 Aperture value: f/4.4 ISO speed ratings: 800 (doh!?) Focal Length: 34mmThe focus was off here. Is it me or is it hard getting the reflection in focus? I tried for a short while and this is the best of the lot. I took this because I like the difference in sky behind the truck and what it was reflecting in the window.
Reflections Study - Mini Side View Mirror
Date: 29.06.09 14:37 Shutter speed: 1/250 Exposure program: Shutter priority
F-stop: f/5.6 Aperture value: f/5.6 ISO speed ratings: 320 Focal Length: 55mmTungsten lighting worked quiet well outside here. The car was all shiny blue so I think it added a nice metallic effect to the shot. Damn those rain drops! I regret not having a cloth to wipe some random persons side view mirror down. Can I do that? O.O
Right! So I have a brand new camera.
A Canon EOS 450D. Its light and comfy and came with a pretty decent lens.
Today was my first day out with it. (It wasn't a very long day as London is actually having some weird thing called a heat wave and I didn't understand it and started panicing and ran back home!)
But I got three shots in all that I've started my reflections study on.
