Juipter Motion Trail


Juipter, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

10.55pm CST I went outside tonight and set my camera up on the tri-pod with the wireless remote and my 70-300mm lens ready to do some "Rotation Of Earth" photography. I pointed my camera at Jupiter and took this shot! It was shot in a 16:9 format. The exposure time was 54 seconds. The camera was in "BULB" mode and "Night" style with the lens in Manual Focus. This photo turned out much better than the one from last night as the Moon was not adding light to the night sky. I was able to capture more stars in this photo.

Exposure: 54 sec (54)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 300 mm
ISO Speed: 400

St Louis: Live on the Levee

We are going tonight to see OAR and watch Fireworks in St Louis at the Live On The Levee.
I have only heard one song from OAR but it is a free concert and the Fireworks are free as well, So it beats sitting at home unloading boxes!

I will have photos to post over the weekend from this event!

Have a good evening!

Everlast - Letters Home from the Garden of Stone

I guess that this video is the new single from his upcoming album.

Gary Jules - Mad World

Gary Jules (born March 19, 1969 in Fresno, California as Gary Jules Aguirre) is an American singer-songwriter, best known for his cover of Tears for Fears' third single "Mad World", which he recorded together with friend Michael Andrews for the cult film Donnie Darko. It became the UK Christmas Number One single of 2003. Since then it has been used on popular American TV shows, and most recently in the commercial for the Xbox 360 video game Gears of War.

Tears For Fears - Mad World

What a great Song!! There is a version that is sung on the Donnie Darko movie that is very good.

Random Person!


Random Person!, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I was sitting at CVS the other day ion the cat while my wife was inside. I had the polarizer on the 18-70mm lens and was just taking random shots with the filter. This person came walking out and saw me in the car, waved at me and then posed. I was not going to take it at first but he just stood there posing so i had to. This is what i got!

This is about as little motion as you can get from a Bee. He looks like he is hugging the flower! I love the detail in the wings. They look so delicate. I used the Macro setting on my lens to get this photo. I am very happy with it and will be shooting many more.

Exposure: 0.008 sec (1/125)

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
