"You want s'more?" " some more of what?"

I went to a bonfire Monday night.  Fun standing in the bitter cold, down pouring rain, and high winds, but it was fun. We had smores.  These 3 different images all had different lengths of exposures.  The top image had the longest exposure and I moved the camera while it was taking the picture giving it the swirling effect.  The middle image didn't have as long of an exposure but long enough to blur the flames.  The bottom image had a fast shutter speed, shorter exposure so you can actually see the individual flames.  Always fun to play with fire.

It's one thing when you try to shoot in the rain, it's another when you try to shoot in the rain with roof ripping winds.  On the bright side, rain certainly makes objects look more interesting.  This was by taken in a small garden by the Brandywine river in Wilmington, I used a low depth of field at about 5.

Autumn Afternoons

I took this picture at a park in Hockessin.  I did enhance the colors and made the red stand out more.  This was taken with a medium depth of field so the background was completely blurred but not totally in focus.  I think the boy running in the background really adds to the picture, I didn't even realize he was in it till I viewed the image afterwards.  

lovely...

I guess there's certain areas you don't want to zoom in on.  This is in a window in the lobby of my building. You can kind of see the beige colored spider towards the right.  Obviously this was in a low depth of field and I loved the background colors, very earthy. Overall I found this image rather interesting.

rojas berries

I took this picture the other day just outside of Morris Library.  I used a low depth of field as you can tell the background is blurred and the foreground is detailed.  I later edited the image through photoshop.  I saturated the berries and unsaturated the leaves to make the berries pop out more.  I also gave the whole image a slight reddish tint.

And thE line beGins to bLur..

This is obviously a picture of a fountain in two different shutter speeds (For those who don't know what a shutter is its a mechanism in the camera of a moving cover that controls time during which light reaches the film) and f/stops (f/stop? The size of the lens aperture).

The top image is was a very quick shutter speed giving it a stop motion; 1/1000 of a second, and aperture was at f/5.6.

The bottom image was taken at a much slower shutter speed causing it to blur; 1/2 of a second, and aperture was set at f/36.
