I am thrilled to see so many of you hanging out with my BFF Kelvin. He sure is making the rounds and having a great time at it! I’m loving your enthusiasm to give Kelvin a chance and learning how to hang with him this week! You are all doing a wonderful job letting him into your photo skills!
Last weekend, as you know I took several of our children to the zoo. I was able to really practice with Kelvin in every kind of lighting. There was shade, bright sun, dark spots, horrible indoor lighting, etc. Yet, no matter where I took Kelvin, he kept proving to me he would be OK. I wasn’t worried so much about getting every technical aspect perfect as I was with getting my WB to match exactly what I was seeing. So even with a few of these being a bit underexposed, they are exactly as I saw them. I cropped my tiger shots and then resized for the web (no other edits were done).
This tiger was very active in the afternoon when we got to his exhibit – which was fun and a bit of an exposure challenge at the same time. The kids and I loved watching him in action!
OK, I’m just going to say it, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the reflections in the water Especially the full one of the tiger!
Ahhh a lone gator hanging by himself. Almost close enough for people to literally reach over and touch it! YIKES! There is nothing wrong with the color in this shot – it is exactly how it all looked in person.
Now onto my totally random title – look at this pink (salmon) color car…isn’t it so cool? The girls all thought so! Please just ignore all the yucky construction stuff behind it. I had to capture the photo fast before it drove on by me.
Tomorrow, I will share a few more photos that Kelvin helped me ROCK SOOC. I keep bringing my camera along no matter what I am heading, and practicing in all kind of lighting situations – the more I practice, the easier it is getting to remember the numbers that work for each situation. I keep forgetting to bring my laminated cheat sheet cards along. So it is a good thing I am practicing a LOT – soon I will be able to set my WB on the fly without even thinking about it. YEAH!
