365 Photo Project - Everything March


It's that time again, time to post a contact sheet of all the images I've taken in the last month and reflect on them.

There's definitely more panoramic attempts this month, at least during the very spring like weather we had at the start of the month. Looking over these pictures I can see flowering trees and plants definitely are prominent as I'm sure they are for more photographers this time of year. Also, this month I made more of an effort to get involved in flickr groups, one to attract more people to this blog but also to hopefully learn and get ideas for this photo a day project. What with spring being here hopefully better weather is just around the corner and I do certainly like having more opportunities with the lighter evenings to get out and out snapping things.

12/365 Photo Project - Sunburst Molly

Image
Sunburst Molly Today certainly was a day for indoor photography with 60mph wind gusts and none stop rains pounding the pavement I wasn't going to subject my camera equipment (or myself) to those elements. Instead I focused my Pentax K200d mounted to the Pentax DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL lens on the wildlife of our aquarium. With my Pentax K200d in macro mode using a tripod and on camera flash I set the sweet spot of focus on the bottom of the tank and waited for the fish to come in to frame. I certainly wish I had more patience to stand there longer, this still took over 20 frames before getting anywhere close to a fish in focus and framed decently. The on camera flash makes the shadow very contrasty here and the depth of field is very shallow - for instance the fish to the left of the frame was less than an inch closer to the lens but is completely out of focus. Perhaps a lesson on photographing fish is needed.

26/365 Photo Project - Broadway Station

Image
Broadway Station Heading in to Boston for lunch today lent itself to taking today's photo of the Broadway T Station on the MBTA Red line. The difficulty here was capturing the length of the platform and the repeating columns while trying to ensure no commuters were in the frame. Looking back at this image I wish I had paid more attention to the recycle newspaper bins and positioned myself so they weren't in the shot. C'est la vie! Taken with the Canon PowerShot SX230HS in Auto mode. No post processing.
