Waterfall Revisited...


Waterfall Revisited..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I went back and wanted to do the "waterfall" thing again after knowing a little bit more about my camera. I used the same waterfall that i located in the fron of my neighborhood. I shot the photo in Shutter Priority this time. The results were amazing. I achieved the desired effect that is wanted when shooting waterfalls. The water is slowed down and it gives a milky look with the surrounding area in sharp focus. It had just finished raining and was overcast with some breaks in the clouds.

Mack re NPR

Thanks to Mac for letting me post this.

 

You'll Never Hear This on NPR


In an unsettled time when some discount stores will sell a customer only 100 pounds of rice a week (Oh, no!  How will we survive the coming winter?), one is strangely comforted by the eternal 1968-ness of National Public Radio.  Here are some observations that will never be heard on NPR:

 

We've polled everyone who works for the station, and no one here knows what "Hegelian dialectic" means.

 

Food prices are skyrocketing, huh?  Does this mean we have to scratch our files of stories about greedy, overweight Americans?

 

We really are being just a little too, too precious by bragging about how we don't have advertising but then really do have advertising anyway, and then spend hours and hours of air time begging for money because we don't have advertising.  We also receive hundreds of millions of your dollars in tax support every year, and voluntary donations are tax-deductible.  This message is sponsored by the Calvin and Ethel Plonk Foundation for a Greener and More Diverse Recycled America.

 

Have you noticed how cleverly we phased out global warming in favor of climate change?  Clearly the planet, which has been cooling and warming in cycles for millions of years, is little influenced by your lawnmower.  However, if today there is rain and tomorrow there is sunshine we can call it climate change and still blame it on your lawnmower.  Climate change – formerly known as weather.

 

Today on All Things Considered we're not going to feature a single story about some lazy oaf in New Orleans who can't be bothered to clean up his own front yard while whining about how the rest of you aren't sending him enough money.

 

Following All Things Considered we'll have Car Talk and then Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, known to radio professionals as dead-air time.

 

And now an interview with AlleeSHEyah von O'Hara y Gomez d'Raheem, the daughter of a Chinese-Irish father and a Spanish-Moroccan mother whose parents were persecuted everywhere else and who then came to America and received lots of freebies but were snubbed by a grocery-store carryout which is why AlleeSHEyah hates America and wrote an award-winning book of I, I, I, me, me, me poetry that doesn't scan detailing her existential angst. And, honestly, her book stinks. 

 

In the next hour we'll feature an award-winning musician, Friedrich "Stubby" Hamncheese who plays fusion Afro-German-Suomi on an Indian sitar hand-made by unemployed Sherpa draft evaders in Toronto, and, really, that doesn't make any sense at all.

 

You people need to get real about fair-trade coffee.  If some grocery chain re-labels a can of coffee with pictures of happy Colombians holding hands and dancing barefoot in the rain forest, and charges you two more dollars for it, are you stupid or something?

 

We use words like existential, ethnic, fusion, diversity, and fair-trade a great deal because that makes us sound, like, you know, smart and stuff.

 

And now, commentary by grumpy old Daniel Schorr, who disapproves of everyone.

 

In the end, we at NPR are just a bunch of otherwise unemployable white liberal arts graduates who play old records and subtly sneer at people who have real jobs and love America.  We even think Al Franken is an intellectual. So why would you send us money?

Good Place To Purchase Books!

I know that many of you read books and novels from many of the big name authors.  I like as much as any to read them as well.  If you go to Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, or even Wall-Mart you can pick them up in hardcover for a premium price.  If you wait for a little bit, you might be able to get them at your local Goodwill outlet.  We went there and have bought several books for a little money. They price hardcover books at $3 and paperbacks at $1!  I purchased a coffee table book that retails for well over $60 at the local goodwill for $3!  They are all donated to the stores and they resell them for profit to help the needy. We have found all the big name authors and the books are in good condition; most of the at least.

 

I read a book by Brad Meltzer about 6 months ago called “The Book Of Fate” that I purchased at Wall-Mart.  I found his first book  “The Tenth Justice” and I got it for $3!  It is in excellent shape and in hardcover.  So if you are looking for some bargain priced books, Goodwill is a great place to go look and it is for a good cause.

This was taken at 7.27pm and it is another installment of my "Rain Project" It was raining this evening and i used my camera to try to get individual drops of rain falling.

I took this at Myrtle Beach while were down for cheer comp. I wanted to try Black and White at night so that is how it came out. It is a little grainy because of the high ISO speed. I had never shot a B&W photo at night so this is a first attempt. At the time this photo was taken, i had the camera for about 2 full weeks. It was really cold that night and the wind was really blowing. We stayed at the Embassy Suites @ Kingston Plantation.

Shooting Range...

Well as you might have looked at the last few pictures that were posted and saw that they were of guns. I went with a few friends of mine today to the range and i brought my camera (Sony a200)

They took a complete assortment of guns and pistols. We did not get to fire and of the big guns, only the pistols and that was fine. We do plan to go back at a latter date when the main firing range is open.

I learned that it is really hard to capture pictures like i did in the bright day and i got lucky on what i was able to capture. I have had no formal training with my camera and i love to try anything that i can with it, having said that i was really lucky! The milk carton exploding like it does on several photos is really cool and i see that the camera is fast enough to get it. The only thing was that it did not like the blast from the gun. I would be shooting and when the boom hit it would stop shooting. Very Strange!

I guess that you live and learn. It was really nice of my friends to take me and let me shoot pictures as well as their pistols. We had a good time!

Comcast Sucks!!!

The longer that we stay with Comcast, the longer they suck. I know that everyone wants Digital Cable, but come on. why take away all the channels that make you want to get cable in the first place.

These assholes took away 5 channels last week and moved them to Digital cable. They need more bandwidth for the video on demand and the other digital stuff. I had digital cable when we moved to Midlo and the 'video on demand' was ok, but it had old movies. Big Freaking Deal!! Comcast has a strangle hold on the area that we live in and aside from getting Driect TV or some crap like that, i need comcast for the internet at the moment. FIOS will not happen for our neighborhood and DSL sucks. They are a necessary evil for the time being.

Perhaps they will move the rest of the semi watchable channels to digital and then we will have only local stuff to watch...

Who knows?

Would Have Been Nice..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

If this shot had worked it would have been an awesome photo. I was at the lake last night and a boat with a blue light in the back came across where i was shooting. It would have left a "light trail" had it worked out. For some reason, i was having trouble getting the camera to focus, it was most likely due to the very dark conditions. As it is now, i got some very interesting camera effects from the mess-up. Even when a photo messes up, some artistic value can be gleaned from it.

Mack on Conscription

Thanks to Mac for letting me publish this.

 

Conscription? Armchair Heroes First!

 

A surprising number of people – people who are never going to have to risk dying in the dust of Iraq – are proposing a return to military conscription.

 

Serving one's country under arms is a noble idea.  Conscription is a bad idea.

 

Military service to one's nation is an honorable gift of effort and years and youth and health, and these can never be recovered.  Further, although few soldiers choose to give their lives, their lives may well be ripped from them by nasty little men whose one skill is to make a Kalashnikov discharge its rounds.  Our young men and women fight and sometimes die so that we can safely whine about gas prices and second-guess every squaddie making the tough decisions in combat.

 

When a young man or young woman takes the military oath, he places his life completely at the disposal of other people, and therefore should never be forced to do so under penalty of law.

 

We are told that military service is a great leveller, that the children of the rich should be forced to serve with the children of the poor so that they can all be multi-cultural or vibrant or nuanced or something together.

 

Well, toad-spit. 

 

Press-gangs are British; they are not American.  No one should be forced from his job, his home, his family, and his life and driven into a dangerous and highly-regimented situation so that some ideologue tapping on computer keys in an air-conditioned office can feel good about social engineering.

 

Conscription is an example of raw democracy gone sour; it is the idea that a majority can legally bully a minority into doing something that the majority cannot or will not do.  And that's just plain wrong.  Further, that camel's nose under the tent flap serves as a precedent for further thuggery.  Perhaps a majority of The People will then vote to impound the car you've worked hard for and give it to someone who doesn't have one.  If the majority can take your life, then taking your car or your home or your savings will be but a trifle.

 

We must consider another problem.  A soldier takes a personal oath of loyalty not to the country or the government or the Constitution, but to the person of the President of the United States in his capacity as war leader.  Given this, consider the characters of the three people standing for President.  Think about the one you find the most repulsive.  Do you really want to entrust the dignity and the life of your eighteen-year-old son or daughter to the judgment of that individual?

 

Those who argue for conscription mean one thing, that a collection of other people should be empowered to force your son or daughter to surrender everything and be menaced into taking a forced oath to a leader who almost surely doesn't give a lizard's eyeball about the kid's life.

 

Those who argue for conscription have no intention of taking your child's place in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in scrubbing a ten-holer in Fort Polk, or in guarding a chain-link fence around a B52 in 20-below weather in North Dakota.

 

The United States has, man for man and woman for woman, the best military in the world, better-educated and better-trained than any military in history, and led by officers who love their nation and who take care of the troops.  This is a military that can kick *ss and take names, and they are all volunteers.  Leave 'em alone and let 'em do their jobs.

 

Conscription?  Only after the last fantasy warrior in his discount-store camouflage has died on the barricades defending this nation.

The Blog...

I am posting more photos than anything else and i am thinking of changing to a "Photo Blog" with a little humor and some videos posted. I am not sure what i want to do with it as i really enjoy having this site and getting comments and views from people around the world. As of late, i have gotten no comments on any of the photos that i have posted. I looks like the most comments that i ever get are from "12 Step" type of posts, so i am really torn as to the direction. If anyone has any feedback, please give it to me.

Thankx,

Camera Stuff...



















It has been close to a month since i bought the Sony a200 DSLR. I LOVE IT!! I try to shoot about 10-15 photos a day depending on the weather and what i am try to do at that time. I try to learn something different and practice that function when i use the camera. This does not presuppose that i do not still use the 51.1Megapixel Sony Cybershot DSC-H1 camera or my Cellphone Cam. I use them all. Sometimes i shoot a pic with the Cybershot and them i will try to duplicate it with the a200. Other times like today, i did a photo with he a200 and then with the cam phone. It is really fun to use all of them because i can do so much with them all.

It is strange switching between them as the a200 weighs more and is physically bigger than the DSC-H1. The a200 uses the Eye Range Finder and has all the information on a display that you can see, no point and shoot stuff. You can see the photo on the big LCD screen on the back with all the EXIF data on it. The DSC-H1 has all this data on the LCD screen as well but unlike the a200, you see the image in real time and can use it to shoot the photo. My cam phone does not include the EXIF data in the picture it takes, that kind of sucks, but what do you expect, it is only a phone. It does take good pictures for a 1.3Megapixel camera as i have gotten lots of comments about the quality. In fact, i have a sunset photo that a local artist is going to make a painting of for me! It is the most Lo-Fi camera that i own and people have made more comments about it!

Well i will keep posting photos and i hope that all of you keep looking and reading about them.
