Photo Date No. 2



Another perfect Saturday…

This morning, after having cozy coffee with Rob, I ventured out on my second Photo date. 

During the week I had done a little more reading about my D40 camera. What I came to realize is that I’d mistakenly hit the exposure compensation button while changing the f stops on my camera during my first Photo date. That explains why last weeks pictures were so under exposed.



So armed with this new information, I ventured back to the flower garden behind the Carlsbad Historical society building on Beech street.  The lighting was nice, but the flowers were looking a little aged.  Hmm, they could use a little hair and makeup! 


I decided to take my time and circle around each grouping of roses until I found what I’d consider the shot.  It was fun to really LOOK at each flower and decide what I really wanted to focus on while looking thru the viewfinder. So here they are, my latest Pics...

  2. Wow, what a difference!
    The pictures look beautiful and it seems you are falling rather quickly into Shutterbug status
