Last Minutes with ODEN

Hi Everyone-

Please watch this documentary and enjoy its message.  A dog can bring wonderful things into life.


I have posted this video to show how one can creativity use the Canon 7D with video capabilities. Ultimately, yes, the reason for us to take pictures/video is to tell a story, incorporate images with sound.  For, now let's just focus on the imagery.  Notice the composition, focus and timing.  Watch it with the sound on, then try it with the sound off.  This will allow you to focus on the visual first.  Of course all aspects (story, image, motion, sound) are combined and balanced in a successful way.  For anyone looking to see what a camera is capable these days, you can see here how it can be creatively shot.

I reiterate with full respect for the content and message, as we look at how the imagery was successfully created. That is why we take photos. Thank you.

Baby Inspiration with D90

There was some discussion lately how to be fun and creative with baby photos.  Well, here are some great examples of that with the D90 with really nice results.  I do have to say I am a bit jealous not to have video on my D300.  But its ok, it really does show how simple things can be very inspiring if approached from an interesting perspective. Thank you David.




This one pulls the shot in and out of focus.  Try this Jennifer!



Cheers and be ready for the photo!
