NC Zoo

Paige O'brien and I went to the zoo yesterday to get some photos and audio for an assignment. I thought I'd share some of my pictures!






That last image was taken by Paige O'brien, but I'm putting it on here b/c I take partial credit for it...I told her to take a photo of it with her wide angle lens, because I had a telephoto lens and couldn't do it myself. (Canon 30D, 24mm, ISO 100, 1/640 sec at f/4)

Old NYC Photos

Oh NYC, I miss you.

These are some old photos I took in NYC when some of the photography students went there for the PhotoPlus Expo in Fall '06.

I shot these on film with my old Minolta camera.
I can't remember the ISO, shutter speed or f-stop.

Week Two of Macro

So, this is the second week of Macro photography. Last week I did a lot of shots with relatively flat subjects and a high depth of field. I decided to try some shots with less depth of field this week, and I like what I got.

Can you guess what these are? (Well, the other Macro students know...but if you don't, then take a guess!)

Old photo

This is an old image from last years portfolio when we shot everything on black and white film and processed and printed it ourselves. I scanned this image from my film. I don't remember what shutter speed or f-stop I used, but the ISO was 100 and I shot it with my medium format Mamiya RB 67.

First time with Macro

This semester the Biocom students have a macro class with Irene. These images are the results of my first time playing with the 5D kit for macro.

Hurrell Assignment

I shot this image last semester for our George Hurrell assignment in portrait lighing class. I think I did a fairly good job on it, but I wish I had used a hair light to make her stand out from the background.
