DSC00303: Christmas Tree 1.7, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

Taken with the Kit lens 18-70mm on a tripod in BULB Mode.

I love how in the B/W photo you can see all of the shadows and light patterns that are on the wall behind the tree. I looks to me like an old photo where the wall has been discolored by the passage of time. The lights on the tree look like little lightening bugs that are living in the tree.

Another in the set taken with the Quantaray 70-300mm lens. I let the photo over-expose to give it a very bright, blurry look.

I took this photo to look like a memory, not clear but blurry like a Christmas memory form many years past. You can remember the tree as a young child and the colors but not the clarity as with new memories.

Exposure: 9 sec (9)

This was the first photo that i posted to Flickr from the Christmas Tree set that i did last night. I was exploring the various effects that different settings of the camera had on the different photos. This is just one of many that i took. IT just happened to make to Flickr where others did not. I love the light "pop" that this photo has. The brightness and sharpness that the Quantaray 70-300mm Tele-Macro has.

Using the 18-70mm Lens, BULB Mode, Optika Wireless Remote, Tripod and my time to get different exposures and f/stops!!

I think that this was a fun experiment in dealing with the wall color, the light setting in the room (non existent) and the Camera Settings. I got some really neat photos depending upon what lens was used and camera setting i used as well. I think that this is a really neat way to learn more about the camera and equipment that i have in my possession.
