Capture of the day August 26th 2009

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

I wanted to experiment with some extension tubes that I got awhile ago, so I used my 50mm macro and a half inch tube (I think). In order to set my aperture I had to put my lens on my camera set my aperture (f/9) , then I had to push the depth of field preview button while I removed the lens from my camera. Then I put the extension tube on my camera, then the lens on the extension tube.

Capture of the Day – August 5th 2009

Wednesday, August 5th, 2009

So This is my first real photo of the day that I actually took (within a day). Yesterday during class there was a really cool sunset, my brother told me to go outside and take a picture of the moon with the clouds like they are in the photo, but my teacher was talking so I couldn’t leave to go take it. After he quit talking we got a break and I ran outside to take this.

I took 10 images and stitched them all together to make a panorama. I shot it at 1/125 sec at f/5.0 ISO 400 at 50mm, hand held.
