My First Attempts at Waterfalls.

My First Attempts..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I took this at the entrance to my subdivision. I set the camera to Apature Priority. It is a look that i have seen in several photos in the Flickr Groups that i am in. I hope to be able to find a real waterfall and try this again. I guess that i came out fine as it had the cloudy look that other photos that i have looked at have.

Another Shot at Night, My Best Yet...

Another Shot at Night., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

This was taken in Vivid Mode as well. You can see the green grass and light from the windows hitting it. You can also see stars above the houses as well.. I am just amazed at the depth and clarity that i can achieve with this camera. I think that is by far the best Night Photo that i have taken to date.

Exposure: 30 sec (30)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 18 mm
ISO Speed: 400

Night Photo in Backyard...

Night Photo in Backyard..., originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I took this in the backyard just playing around with the settings of the camera. I also had the setting on Vivid Mode on the Manual Program. I am learning about the F/Stop setting and how they react with the light and camera settings. I am also trying different ISO settings when i take photos at night. You can also see a few stars above the houses.

Exposure: 20 sec (20)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 18 mm

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.

The Cult - Rain

1985...This remindes me of Rhinestones in Beaumont and K106fm. They played live from the clubs there and also from Starz in Vinton Louisiana.

The Cult's - She Sells Sanctuary

1985 at its best!! What an album "Love"

Marcy Playground - Saint Joe on the Schoolbus

This is a great track. Has a real Nirvana feel to it...
