To all ye who want to paint with light ...

I should have started this blog many moons ago as I started experiencing the joys of rediscovering the art of photography. But as the saying goes - it's better late, than never!
So, here I am, in the hopes of recording what I learn as I progress from ignorance to enlightenment; about what my eyes can see that my camera can capture; and, what my mind imagines and my camera paints with its capabilities.

Please feel free to add any comments and share your wisdom (tips or tricks) that you have picked up along the way.

Day 41 - All kinds of photos

Today was filled with all kinds of photo opportunities.  A few of my colleagues and I went out on a photo shoot during our lunch hour.  We've recently started a photography club and we've been meeting once a week.  Today was our first outdoor shoot.  Nothing much can be accomplished in 45 minutes, but something is better than nothing.

We got out today and just picked one of the side streets with some interesting buildings and then walked over near the port area.  I got a few good shots from then.  Since I was using my C-PL, I tried my hand at all kinds of reflections.  I'm not too disappointed with the results, but I have to think of ways of improving the shots.










And on my way home, I spent some time with the ducks and the robins, and got a few photos of them as well.


I have to learn how to get some good shots of flying birds. I guess a tripod could be of help at times, but not in all situations.
