Capturing motion

This week's assignment for our Digital Photo 1 class was to capture motion and play around with various effects using aperture, shutter speed and ISO. For example, one may desire to blur motion or alternatively, crisply capture a pose, which is only held for a fraction of a second. I took some shots of Lynn doing yoga for my assignment. The shots are pretty mediocre, but Lynn is amazing!!

The proud owner of a new iMac

I got a new toy this weekend: a new iMac, 27-inch screen. I've used a PC all my life, but now that I'm starting to play around more with photography, I figured I might as well make the jump to Mac. The shopping and out-of-the-box experiences were pretty amazing. These are guys are good. Maybe it's time to trade in my Blackberry for an iPhone :-)

Who moved my cake?

One of our creative assignments was to take a common object and shoot it in unusual places. I chose a $5 Safeway cake, which I drove around the city to look for good locations. Here are a few of the shots. My favorite is the bench shot. What's yours? M
