I couldn't even get a shot of the moon. How can I not get a shot of the moon? I've done it a zillion times. Maybe I need to start over tomorrow...

One wrinkly moon with lots of added vignetting. I mean, why not? I can't seem to do anything else right. :ambivalence:

Re: First Nude Portrait!

Day 002

I finally found a model that didn't mind posing nude, so I took advantage of her.

I've been working on getting my totally subpar lighting just perfect for portraits, and I think I nailed this one!

Someone hand that model a Big Mac, fries and a cherry pie, she's practically skin and bones!

Exposure for the moon is the same as the "Bright Sunny Day" rule which states that exposure on a bright sunny day (no clouds) is 1/ASA @ f/16. Forget auto and go manual and apply this principle

Like this?

...and what is this "Auto" everyone seems to be talking about lately? :biggrin-new:

Thanks to Grandpaw's awesome explanation, I have found my "Auto"!

...though I'm not sure why everyone keeps telling me not to use it. I paid some big bucks for it, I'm going to use it.

It's becoming quite obvious that the right side of my brain has completely died. At the very minimum, it has gone on an extended vacation. Since there's no creativity in me at the moment, here's my satellite dish!

I had to crawl up on the roof to see what exactly was up there. I'm going to install a new SWM LMB to this thing and redo the wiring in my house so we can get some advanced stuffage on the tv. Figured I'd bring my camera with me.

I haven't seen a tomato worm since I was kid, but as soon as I saw something had been chompin' on our mater's, I knew there was one close!

So there I was, just drivin' down the road mindin' my own business. When all of a sudden I get smacked in the face by something, and then that something bounces all around the inside of the car and me, and I realize it's a bee! I see it fall into that garbage bag you can kinda make out in the photo, and I drive another mile or so, and I look down and there it is! It was not happy in any shape or form, as it stung that shifter knob probably two hundred times! Then it takes off flying and runs straight into the tip of my nose, and somersaults right out the window!

Disaster averted.
