Macro world 1

  The macro world is a fascinating world. The macro world from this pictures is at a larger scale and shows my lack of experience with the Fujifilm HS30EXR.

Fuji HS30EXR - abstract

   Abstract isn't really the correct word for this post, but I think there is some abstract in every photo.

   If abstract I named it then I will start with 2 abstract photos. A "Nail in the window" I named the first phot, because that's what it really is. 

   I love this 2 first abstract photos because of there color and story.

   With this next picture I wanted to say that food photography is also abstract. How you can see in the lower part of the photo I got some shadow. It wasn't intentionally, but I also didn't want to crop the photo. My food photography is still at the beginning, but I hope one day I will manage to get some photos that can make it in the cook book.

   How I mentioned earlier I left the best 2 photos last. This first one is one of the photos I'm most proud of and to capture it (along with the one above) I worked about 30 to 45 minutes during a cold night, but it was worth it. The last photo is the same rose as the one in the photos I just mentioned. I like the bokeh in thei photo and the sharpness of it.

Fuji HS30EXR - animals

   Cats and Marty (my Guinea Pig)

   My first animal photography using my Fujifilm HS30EXR camera. It was an interesting experience, because I was new to full manual settings and animal photography, but I think I managed to capture some good photos.

   Getting the correct white balance and exposure when photographing white animals is a bit hard at first, but once you take a couple of photos you start getting it as expected.

   From my point of view this next 3 photos are the money shots. I like how I captured the typical cat behavior and I can sense its feeling through this images.

   If I did a photo shot for the cats, I also did one for my pet Guinea pig - Marty. This was hard. because of the small space I had and because he was always hiding. One day I make another photo shot of him and I hope that time I will make much better photos.

2009 - Canon IXUS 80 IS

   In 2009 I received a digital point and shoot camera, the Canon IXUS 80 IS. It had an 8Mp sensor, a manual mode and it had great color depth for such a camera. 

   This camera is the one that got me more into photography, so I hope you enjoy my selection of photos that I took with this camera.
