Curious

March 31, 2009

I know there are a few greyhound lovers out there. Here is our Brandee looking curious. She raced at 3 tracks in the United States before finishing her career at the Caliente track in Tijuana, Mexico. Used a Nikon D3 body, 85mm f/1.4 lens, and colorized the image with Adobe Lightroom.

Beach Ball

March 27, 2009

Giant beach ball art installation on the boardwalk in Virginia beach, Virginia. Used a Linhof 612PC panoramic camera, Fuji transparency film, and scanned with a Nikon Coolscan 9000. The transparency is 6×12cm but the largest the scanner will hold is 6×9cm so I scanned each end and used the “photomerge” tool in Photoshop to bring the two pieces together into one image.

Pastor Steve Mays

March 26, 2009

Pastor Steve Mays teaching at Calvary Chapel South Bay. Used a Nikon D3 with a 80-200mm lens and a very high ISO of 2500. This image has been cropped substantially and I’m still amazed at the clean file quality of that camera with low light levels and high ISO’s.
