My new toy.

The new Canon 5D MKIII was released in March and I waited to allow time for glitches. However, my Pocket Wizards have yet to be reversed engineered. I'll be using the basic infrared communications for my flash system until PW gets their programming updated.

So far the images are amazing and I'm loving the extra focusing points allowed. 

Thanksgiving break.

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite times of the year.  I usually get a nice break from work and there is food everywhere!  This year I decided to do some experimenting with the camera and play with a few subjects.

As I walked around outside with the camera, I decided to setup a tripod and shoot straight up to capture the various lines.  This image works great in black and white.

This image required some traveling in the area to find a decent leave.  most leaves had already fallen and been blown away.   I froze the leave in a baking dish to prepare for this shot.

I had a lot of fun with this shot because I knew that the faster that I finished, the faster I got to eat candy!   These M&M's are in a cup covered with a clear CD case cover dotted with drops of water. 

This photo wasn't planned liked the three above.  I had a couple of family photo sessions during break.  I dont stop work completely!! :)  The clouds were moving fast and the sun was also dropping out of sight. i barely got setup in time to catch the sun before it disappeared. 

iPhone 4 - a.k.a quick camera.

After along wait and nursing my iPhone 3s the new iPhone 4s has finally arrived.   One of the most anticipated options for me is the improved camera.  There have been times when I needed a basic photo for posting and didnt have one of my cameras with me.  I made posts from the old iPhone bu the quality wasn't very good even for facebook.  The new phone will be of much use for shooting some quick pics in the near future.
