I love shooting into the sun.

Funny thing... When I took Photo 1 at Judson a ways back, I asked our professor how to shoot with a backlight. His response was not to do it. Hahahahahaha. Maybe he should stick to fruit with corn syrup... Sorry, kind of mean, but I really didn't learn anything in that class. Certainly didn't learn that it is possible to shoot into a setting sun, one of my favorite things to do :)

Super tired, been shooting like mad. Have some volleyball pictures and some more soccer, but who really wants to see volleyball? Maybe some more soccer is in order... Only if your good :D

Lately I have been totally addicted to this one particular album from Sigur Ros, Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust. I think my favorite song is Ara Batur, it has such an epic crescendo!

First game with the Mark II! Still figuring out how to use the beast. Come up with some decent keepers. Though out of 550, I only got about 50ish that turned out well. Hopefully I will get better :)

Might bit up to date. Haven't been shooting a whole lot of interesting stuff... Sorry :(

Got a new camera, Canon 1D Mark II. Sexy beast, that one. Shooting some sports the next few days, should be a blast! Oh, and all these from today where shot with the Mark II, normally this kind of stuff would have been shot with the 5D, but thought I should take some respectable images with the new camera. Sports is what its really good it.

Part of the reason I haven't posted of late is I have been hard at work on finishing a wedding. I am really really happy with how everything turned out.

Oh, this is also my first significant foray with Adobe Lightroom 2... man oh man, its fantastic. SO much more useful, there is no doubt in my mind this is the best photo editing software on the market. I now only need Photoshop for a few random, specialized needs (pano/hdr merges and maybe some lens distortion correction). Adobe also released a developer kit, so now third party companies can begin to develop add-ons for Lightroom. Excited to see what happens with that!

Also, the transition to the WordPress blog is still in the works... Trying to find a decent template now. So far, it is WAY easier to upload and post images to it, but I am not liking the "gallery" thing it is doing. It only give small thumb nails and you have to click on the images to make them larger, which I am not digging at this point.
