My Canon

February 16th, 2008 | Category: Photos,Random

Christian got me this great book specific to my dslr (Canon Rebel XT) that was signed by the author (David Busch) for Valentine’s Day. Well, I got over halfway through the book tonight and played around a bit with my camera based on some stuff I read about.

This is our ceiling fan light (3 bulbs). I played with something called bulb exposure and drew hearts!

The below picture is much less exciting. I was reading up about depth of field and manual focusing. I manually focused this thing and created a narrow depth of field. (That book that’s in focus is the one I’m reading!)

The book has tons of interesting info and I can’t wait to get out take some pictures of more interesting subjects.

Time to go watch LOST. I know, we’re a little late in the game this week – we just kinda forgot!
