I am THREE weeks behind in blogging my photos :(
But they've all been taken (albeit quite a few were taken after midnight of very boring objects just before bed!), just have to blog them. Hopefully I will catch up over the next few days.

Flash @ 1/1000

Camera: E-3
Program: Manual

Aperture: f4.0
Shutter: 1/1000
Focal length: 33mm (66mm equiv.)
Flash


I am hopeless, I took just one photo today - forgot to take anything else later on (well actually I remembered late at night but couldn't be bothered because technically I'd taken a photo for day).
There was no purpose to this other than to show someone who wouldn't believe me that I could take a correctly exposed image using flash at 1/1000. As you can see the flash certainly fired and without it you wouldn't be able to see any detail in the image, as correct exposure for the aperture and ISO used was around 1/60.

I do just love it! Look at all that lovely circular bokeh in the background. Took about 20 all at the same time that I just love. Wish she'd been dressed in something different though! Oh well, the best photos are the ones that weren't precipitated :D

I ran the adjustment brush in Lightroom over the rainbow to increase the saturation but now it looks a little dodgy. Didn't really need to either as it was already wonderfully vibrant. The E-1 produces the best colour with it's Kodak sensor. I <3 my E-1!

Yes my 5 year old actually took this one, lol! But I will count it as my photo of the day because I did set it up for her on the tripod - I just told her when to release the shutter ;) She had heaps of fun and we got lots and lots of cute shots of her baby sis!
Unfortunately there is nowhere in the yard that was all shade, just patches under trees were as good as we could find.

Another night where I've realised to late I haven't taken my photo yet... I run out of inspiration when I need sleep. The computer screen looks really small there but it is absolutely MASSIVE. I love doing editing on it, I don't know how people cope with smaller screens!

I decided to crop this to the 'standard' 2:3 ratio as I had a bit of space in the left of the frame. Cameras with APS-sized sensors use the 2:3 ratio, which is in other words, the proportion of a 4x6 inch print.
It looks strange to me, too skinny. I love the Olympus four thirds system. The 4:3 ratio just has such an eye-pleasing proportion.

*sigh*

This photo a day thing is getting rather tiring.
And I'm getting very behind in the blogging too!
But - I will keep going, gotta get that camera out every day, even if it's just for one lousy uninteresting shot.... (the night before last, I photographed the TV. Yep, slouched on the lounge, I took a shot of the TV. Totally lacked any motivation or inspiration for a pic... but I did do my photo of the day, and that's what counts :D
Will try to find the motivation to catch up on the blog soon.

I know this flower is totally deranged! And well done if you could even tell it was a flower, ha ha. The reason why this is so deranged is I couldn't find a small torch or anything, so I used a lighter. It kept going out, and I had to do it really slowly so it didn't go out from the movement, so I wasn't sure where to match up petals, ha ha.
