Sandy Creek Park 1.1


Sandy Creek Park 1.1, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

Sandy Creek Park off of Main Street in Jasper Texas. Taken using the Sony 18-70mm Lens in a 16:9 Aspect Ratio at different lengths of time. I used the Opteka Timer Remote Control and a Tri-Pod to take the photos. I used an "On The Fly" Custom White Balance on this set of photo to cut out the Orange glow from the High Pressure Sodium Lighting that is used in this park. It is the first time that i have ever done this. I was very impressed with the results.

This photo was taken with the 2500k G3 Custom White Balance settings but in Spot Metering Mode. Just trying out different settings with the camera. I did not use a White Card to calibrate the camera to get the custom color setting. I just pointed it out into the night and i got the setting.

I took this when i lived in Midlothian Virginia. Great cropped photo.

I cropped the original photo to zoom onto the Be better. Here it is! The resolution is just amazing with my A200. No distortion from the original to the cropped photo. look at the clarity of the bee in contrast to the surroundings and notice you cannot see his wings frozen.

Forrest 1.2, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

Taken in the Angelina National Forrest off of HWY 63 West in 16:9 Aspect Ratio using the Sony 18-70mm Lens after about 3 inches of rain today. You can see the foliage starting to change.

It was raining while i was taking this photo. I have driven by this several times and wanted to take photos, today was the day. You can see Forrest Ferns and other foliage starting to change colors due to the Autumn Season approaching. It was very cool and wet with a temp of 56 DegF which is very cool for this early in the season in SE Texas.

DSC06171: Work 2.4


DSC06171: Work 2.4, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

I think that this photo is perhaps even better than the Work 2.7 photo. The color and lighting is brilliant on this photo. The bright arc is not overpowering any of the photo and you can see the orange glow of the lights in the metal shot reflecting on the metal to the left of the weld. The orange glow on the inside of the pipe si from the hot metal penetrating the pipe and welding it together.

Aperture: f/5.6

MIG Welding: A Close Up


MIG Welding: A Close Up, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

Where as this is not a "macro" photo, it is a close up photo of a craftsman using a MIG welding gun to finish fabricating the metal together. I love the little sparks flying all over the place and the smoke rising out from in between the two pieces of metal. The bright arc lights up the interior of the item so he can see what he is welding through his helmet. You can see marks and scars on the table from many years of work being done on it.

I love the contrast in the light and dark shadows in the photo. The sky was very blue with no clouds in the sky. It was sort of a hard photo to get in those conditions. The park is very nice looking and it was a pleasant day for a walk and some photo opportunities.
