Adam's Photography: November 2005

Fall Color from a Porch

As Adam recently discovered, sometimes a veritical perspective works very well. Some people may think that the railing gets in the way but, by including his friend's porch, Adam's image shows a lot of depth. The distant trees look a little hazy due to moisture in the air.

Adam's Friend

Adam enjoys getting into people's faces, literally. And when he does, Adam CAN hold the camera still if he wants to.

Fall Color During Early November

After the soccer game, Adam hung out with his friends and got this shot of fall color while looking across from one hill to the next. Adam was standing at the top of a driveway and shot these trees that rise above the houses across the street. This is a full-frame shot (as are all the others posted here on this site so far), which means this image appears exactly how he framed it through the view-finder. Of course, there is some bluriness to the image, caused by camera movement as the shutter snapped. He was actually walking across the yard while photographing because he was trying to photograph a neighbor who was walking by with a dog.

A November Sky

Adam did some photography at a friend's soccer game, and he captured some scenic shots in between the excitement on the field. Here is a cloudy November sky. Unfortunately, the small file size and JPEG compression of his camera make it difficult to reproduce a high quality representation of his work. But even with the pinkish speckeled "noise," this shot turned out pretty cool.

A Busy Intersection, Through the Glass

Adam got this abstract shot of cars and people while looking through the glass wall of his karate school. The appearance of rain is just an illusion caused by movement of the camera when the shutter snapped. Though a tripod can be a useful tool, sometimes it can be fun to try a shot without one!
