Week 37 - Run

As my daughter is learning to move faster and faster, she is always happy to chase us around the park. I thought I would take advantage of this and use her as my model for the run theme. Unfortunately, a bout of bad weather left me with little over an hour of bad light to shoot, and trying to use a fisheye lens for the first time left me with just three photos to choose from. I did not get the dramatic exaggerated photo I had in my mind, but I think this one is ok as a start. I am looking forward to playing with the fisheye some more in the future.

Week 12 - Straight out of Camera

Straight out of camera week found me on a skiing holiday so I had my pick of beautiful landscapes to photograph. I just had to be careful not to fall on my camera while skiing. As far as using shots without processing, my most common mistake was not paying attention to the edges of the frame and finding myself wanting to crop the raw shots. Alas, it was not permitted, so the offending photos were just discarded.

At last, I chose a shot that shows off the many perks of Winter holidays in Austria: skiing, relaxing in the sunshine and enjoying beautiful picturesque landscapes.
