DSC00234: Christmas Tree 1.4


DSC00234: Christmas Tree 1.4, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

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)
Aperture: f/4
Focal Length: 120 mm
ISO Speed: 100

DSC00297: Christmas Tree 1.0


DSC00297: Christmas Tree 1.0, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

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.

Exposure: 12 sec (12)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 70 mm
ISO Speed: 100

DSC00213: Christmas Tree 1.15


DSC00213: Christmas Tree 1.15, originally uploaded by RMStringer.

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.

Exposure: 3 sec (3)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 35 mm
ISO Speed: 200
