I don't know. This is actually at a lake about a mile from a small river.

no. Tree was placed on a marble slab. I had some christmas lights surrounding the slab. There's a 1/4 cto'd sb80dx out of the frame placed behind the tree on the right for a bit of separation + silver reflector on the right of the tree for fill. Ideally I should have a light behind the camera just to add a touch of light to the top of the tree to balance shit out, but I didn't have that much room in the kitchen.

Background is also xmas lights.

got a new lens for my birthday today. 50mm 1.8

i'm using it on a D60, so i have to manual focus for now. maybe if i upgrade bodies in the future i won't have to, but for now it adds to the challenge.

1st shot with it.

Burton love the backside 5-0. Did you do anything in post to make the skater himself pop any more? Or was that just a product of the lighting?

I think it is mostly the lighting and the color of his hoodie. The sun was directly behind me which definitely helped. I did bump the contrast up a bit and ran an unsharp mask which made him pop.

Just look for the green dot in the corner of your viewfinder. Congrats on the new lens.

Nice pics, Burton.

yeah, that's what i've been doing. for the most part working well, but the DOF plane is so much smaller at 1.8 than my kit lens (duh) i really have to make sure i've got it focused on what i want.


example (and my pic for today)

rear end of the bike is sharp (mostly?) but since the bike sits at an angle, the front end starts to blur. obviously i'd need a higher F number to help with this.

if you have an iphone/ipod touch/ipad, dl the app "bokeh".

if not, i'm sure there are plenty of alternatives

There are a couple of ways to improve that. I'd recompose the shot so I had more features from the bike in focus. Try another mode than center-weighted average. Spot metering is all I use until I start shooting moving objects.

Speaking of moving objects:
