Another shot of the bumble bee looking for some pollen! I'm pleased with how sharp this is. I would have used this as the POTD if I would not have captured the grasshopper.

A tilt-shift effect. Not one of my better one, imo.

First one ever. This is a macro mode crop from my smartphone. My M575 ran down just before I spotted this. Still a good macro from my phone.

I picked up an new phone today. It's a Samsung Galaxy S 4G. It's replacing my Dell Mini 9 netbook that I was using with a Cricket mobile broadband modem and my ancient Nokia 6010 cellphone. It has a 5 megapixel camera and records 720p HD video. It also has a webcam. So far I like it.

Super Cool Tilt-Shift HD Video



(This is not mine and I did not create or have anything to do with it. I copied the embed html from flixxy. If I am using this illegally just let me know and I will remove it immediately.)

I reduced the aspect ration so it would fit the page, just hit the full screen and choose HD if you have it.

My wife picked this up for me quite a few months ago at a yard sale. I think she gave $10 for it. Has the flash, a 'nifty fifty' and a 80-200 zoom. It also has a 2x tele-converter and a nice bag. All I had to do was replace the battery. From what I know about this it is an SLR that is an aperture priority automatic. Another words the only real control is the aperture setting (and ISO), the camera handles shutter speed. I think I'm going to try it out. Oh, and in case you didn't know it is a 35mm film camera.

You know the tune! :D I shot some 16:9 yesterday at the lake. I knew I'd like this one as I was framing it in the screen. SOOC.

Tilt-shift Made Easy

I'm interested in creating tilt-shift photos. Found a place on the web that does it. Tilt Shift Maker. I uploaded the original and used the defaults, but increased the focus area, and came up with this. Pretty neat. I chose this shot because of all of the details. Check out the flickr group!
