    Marcel's Daily pics 2013

    Feb 21st. Different shots today starting with a piano by itself and then the piano owner that had just come in from outside. I thought it would make a different feel for my project.

    It's snowing! How can I capture it?

    I think that sometimes shooting the snowy conditions at night are nice. Here are a few pics that I did tonight after dinner:

    Ironwoods Pen Journey

    Not sure at all about the HDR. I think just a little more post processing would improve the 1 shot picture. I hope you won't mind if I show you how it turned after just a few clicks in Photoshop:

    As a single picture, I would agree to your crop. As a matter of fact, my 2 first shots were vertical and for a portrait, this is what I would use.But this is going to be part of an ensemble of pictures and I kind of like the division the shadow makes. It is confusing to look at since there seem...

    Feb 20th This is my piano person of the day. Funny that she chose not to look at the camera and that her shadow on the piano kind of leads her person away from the shot too.

    request: Next unread button

    Ah, you know what I would really like is a "next unread" button. This way, when going through the unread posts I don't have to go back to "What's new" then scroll down then open and wait. Is that something that could easily be done? Make it big so it's easy to click on. :)

    Feb 10th-Mar 10th Monthly Assignment: Homemade FOOD photography

    Here is my first entry: Honey-mustard chicken with spinach pasta with basil pesto with wine sautéed mushrooms and a little touch of fresh grated parmesan: The meal was planned more than the photo. I just sat to eat and thought… OH, this could be an entry. So, there is not enough DOF but the...

    Feb 19th Just in case I don't find anything better, this is one I did for the "Last letter game". Temperature does not seem to be very picturesque today.

    16-35 vs 14-24

    This is not a scientific experiment. I just went out with both lenses and shot from the same spot with the D700 at iso 200. I shot both lenses at F4 to be fair and used jpegs straight out of the camera. 16-35 12-24 from same spot 16-35 100% crop right bottom corner (almost) 14-24 crop of...

    Feb 18th I went outside to see how long I could hold a camera while still feeling my fingers… Not so long. Here's my photo of the day:

    Old mechanical clocks

    NIce setup. Maybe if you could move the table forward so the backdrop is more out of focus to hide the creases it would be better. Or apply a gaussian blur to the background only. Nice clocks. Here is mine that I inherited from my parents. The chime was so disturbing that I replaced the...

    As I was working on picking up the slack on my forum reading, I noticed the sky was getting nice. So, I hopped in the car with the D600 and 14-24 and got this:
