this is bert; he's my airsoft gun. 405 feet per second, 800 rounds per minute, reflex sight, and a fully functional silencer. oh yeah

Shutter speed: 1/20. ISO 800. F-stop 10. Indoor shots are hard

MOTION

this is my airsoft buddy named fritz. I used a 1/20 shutterspeed, F-stop 10, on ISO 100 to get the shot.

I like my eggs in black and white.

hahaha i found an old picture of me

OLD PHOTOS

Camera+rain+macro lense=Sweet photo

LOOK AT MY OLD POSTS!!!!! GAH!

I WISH I HAD MY CAMERA

In the school where I live, They let us out for a week and a half to help in the potato harvest. during that time I checked out a camera from my photo teacher. The cloudy skies casted GORGEOUS lighting for panoramas...and I never got around to shooting any photos except for the picture of the boy in the rain coat. I could've done so much more, oh well.

15 things I’ve learned the hard Way
By Jake Banta
1. ALWAYS check your ISO! An ISO higher than 200 will result in a grainy looking image and a loss of clarity. The ISO is the sensor’s sensitivity to light. A high ISO is used for fast moving objects or nighttime snapshots. A Low ISO is used for daytime shots and/or objects that aren’t moving.
2. Cloudy days are best to shoot in. The clouds diffuse the harsh sunlight, transforming it into soft light that doesn’t ruin the colors of the object you’re shooting.
3. 240ppi is the magic number for printing photos. Any less pixels and your image will appear pixilated, any more and it just makes your files take up more space on the hard drive.
4. There’s more than one way to do anything in Photoshop; so far I’ve learned five different ways to make a black and white image.
5. Saving files as JPEG’s compresses your images and makes the picture look worse and worse each time you save it.
6. Film may be obsolete, but it’s still the best for night photography. Film produces a less grainy image than a sensor in low light environments.
7. Thoroughly inspect your image BEFORE you print it…..damn trees….
8. A digital SLR camera will need to have its sensor cleaned from time to time to reduce dust spots on your image.
9. Tripods are your friends when taking panoramas.
10. The clone stamp tool is very handy for removing zits in an image.
11. A small F-stop number means the aperture is opened wider than a larger F-stop number.
12. A small F-stop (2.8 or so) has a very narrow depth of field, making it less than desirable for portraits.
13. A 100mm. lens is perfect for portraits because it doesn’t distort facial features.
14. Always use adjustment layers when working on an image. It just makes life easier that way.
15. Camera RAW format is wonderful because it gives you all the tools you need to fix your image without having to reshoot it.
