DSC06492: Cold Patio Chair

DSC06492: Cold Patio Chair, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I took this photo of a chair on our patio. I liked the look of it in Blacka nd White. I used the F58AM flash with the Omin-Bounce 580 diffuser on this photo as well. I took it at a strange angle to get it all in the photo. I used the 35-105mm lens to take this photol.

I was using my 70-300mm lens. I had the F58am flash with an Omin-Bounce 58 Diffuser on it. The a200 was in "Portrait" Mode. I was bored so i had been wanting to try this shot for a while. I like this because it is kind of a spooky photo.

This is another plant in the series that i took yesterday. It is located at a park that had a fountain and the wind blew the water onto the plants and coated them with ice. I really liked the looks of the bush so i took a series with two different lenses. This was taken with my Minolta 35-105mm lens.

1. Bag it Take off your lens hood and place the bag over the lens so that a corner covers it and makes a cone shape.	2. Cut it Keeping the bag taut, use your fingernail to rub the edge of the bag so it cuts it perfectly to the lens shape.	3. Hood up Refit your lens hood taking care to make sure the bag doesn’t move and cover any part of the front element.


4. Eye eye All SLR cameras have a removeable eye-cup. Take it off and pull the bag over it so the open end faces down.	5. Manhandle Pinch or tear a small hole using your fingernail and pull it tight so it sits snugly around the eye-cup surround.	6. Refit Place the eye-cup back over the mount so the bag sits in between the camera body and the eye-cup. Done!
