Sunday Swinging- Melanie Meik

I took this using my "action" option on my camera. Then I got on the computer and made really high contrast and messed with some of the editing options.

Swings - Kris Fryer

I took this photo at Porter Park on the swings. I then used camera raw to make the photo black and white.

Weekly Contest for 05/11/10: Swings

Hey Gang!

This week we will be taking pictures of swings. These can be anything, rope swings, chain swings, perspective of swings, toy swings, and any other swing (other than dancing.) Have fun with this little contest! We are excited to see what you make this week.

Title: Holding Liquid Light
I took this photo on the deck of my apartment at 7:20 pm. the ISO was 800, the f-stop was 5.6, and the shutter speed was 1/250. I took this with my Sony Alpha 500. It has a feature on it to increase the contrast which I did.
I might not be able to make it to todays meeting which I lament so If I cannot I will give an explination here of how I did it other that what I have already told you. The hands are my wife's hands. She was holding a little mirror hiding part of it with her hands. The sun was setting and I made sure the reflection of the sun would show up in the photo. So this photos it not edited and that is it as it is. It is like she is holding light, yet is like the light is in a liquid..... MmmmmMM! yeah I think it is good.
BTW I'm way excited for photographics this semester.

All of these were shot with a Canon 50D with a Sigma 24-70mm lens at an ISO of 100. These were all photos taken on our family excursion to Yellowstone National Park. Only 2 hours outside of Rexburg. We spent 4 days playing in the park and I was able to get some great photos. Yellowstone is a good place to practice up on your wildlife and scenic photography. You have the opportunity to shoot bald eagles, bison, elk, deer, moose, wolves, and grizzly bears. Not to mention all of the thermal features, a beautiful canyon, stunning sunsets, and so much more! If you have never been there I highly suggest you take advantage of being so close and getting out there. You can view the rest of my images from the trip at www.kingsphotos.blogspot.com

I have to work late and cannot make it to photographics tonight, but I thought I would post my CD cover anyway. I didn't come up with an awesome album name or anything, but just liked the photo. In fact, I did two. Naturally, if I were a singer, I would have two hit albums.

This is my first ever Album Cover I have designed. I think it turned out rather well all considering. I used a picture that was taken of me.

My Favorite Songs - No particular order -

1. Call To Arms | Angels And Airwaves

2. All I Have | Mat Kearney

3. Gotta Be Somebody | Nickelback

4. Kiss A Girl | Keith Urban

That's just to name a few... there are much more that I like!

3x5- John Mayer

Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles

Wallet- Regina Spektor
