Not Supposed To Be There...


Not Supposed To Be There..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

This is a wonderful shot of our cat sitting where she is not supposed to. She likes to climb and get on high places. I think that it was well framed and love the lighting and contrast.

I wished that this shot was taken at night. I used my 18-70mm lens to take this and it turned out great1 With no clouds in the sky, it would have been a sweet shot at night. It was taken at Short Pump Town Center, a local "open air" mall in the North West End of Richmond Virginia.

Exposure: 1/3200 sec
Aperture: f/4
Focal Length: 18 mm

Were driving East and going over the MLKing bridge when i took this photo. I love the color of the bridge and the shadows on the road from the bridge structure. This was also taken with my 18-70mm lens while driving down the road. I used a UV filter for this shot as well.

I took this in a shoe store as we were walking around the mall. You can see a few specs of dust in the photo from them being on the lens. I have got to be better at brushing the lens off before a taking a picture! This would have been an otherwise great still life photo without the artifacts on the pic.

Old Police Car...




I took this when we entered the National Mall in DC on the 4th of July. It is a really old and neat car! I was able to get a side profile shot of the police helicopter as well.

Coming In For a Landing...

I woke up this morning and look what i saw. I was amazed to find this Lilly blooming in my yard. We had a little rain yesterday, but not much. I guess what we did get made this bloom. I have a rose bush that is back in bloom as well. I wonder if all the dry weather has something to do with the blooms this summer.

I will be able to post photos from my LGVX8600 Cam Phone but no big posts or photos from Flickr till i get settled and have internet service. So from July 9 till July 14, i will not be posting any big photos.

See you soon!

DSC05340, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I took all of these with my new lens. I was trying different settings on the lens and i also used a UV Filter on it as well. I used the zoom feature on the new lens to get this photo. I love the bright light catching her fur and her eyes with all of the gray around them. The brown floor and her shadow were caught well by the new lens. I also used a UV filter on this photo as well. Her paw by her face looks like she was about to clean herself.
