Living the Low Light



D40 / Handheld / f/4.5 / 2.5 sec exp / ISO-800 / 26 mm Focal Length

Having a little fun with the bug in low light. This was taken back in SEP 08. It's to cold and snowy for me to get out there and take some new pics.

Yardhouse


Yardhouse, originally uploaded by 105photography.

Handheld / D40 / f4.8 / 1/2 sec. / ISO 1600!!! / 35 mm focal length.

This picture was taken last month at a bar / restaurant in Glenview, IL called "The Yardhouse." They have over 100 beers and tap and some really great food.

I took the picture AGAINST the request of the bartender. I think there may have been some company policy about letting people take pictures of the bar, but sometimes you have to risk a little to get that great shot.

I hope you enjoy... I KNOW I DID!!

Badges?

This photo was taken at an all VW show which I attended on 21 SEP 08. Editing was done using CS3 to create one of my favorite effects, which I was inspired to learn how to do by my friend E. McCune. You can find a link to his photoblog at the bottom of this page.

1st One

Welcome to my photoblog.

My hope here is to share my photos with the public as well as get input from everyone.

I am currently shooting with a Nikon D40 with the kit lens and a 55-200 mm lens.  I like to do all kinds of photography, but mostly (as you will see) cars and landscapes. I try to do very little post procesing, but when I do I use CS3.

I am new to the "blogging" community...so go easy.

Thanks.
