new gizmo

Posted 07-20-2008 at 05:47 AM by supertackyman (supertackyman's BIOblog.)

went out today to wallymart and bought the coolest thing! its a popup visor for the screen on my camera. the visor piece sticks on via peel adhesive and then can be detached from the frame it not needed.
the nice thing is that it serves as a lcd protecter, and a sun visor.
check it out at Digital camera accessories and OEM flash manufacturer - Delkin Devices
only 10 bucks, and im already in love with it.
now I can shoot outside and not have to misery with the sun creating...

Fairs are interesting again

Posted 07-19-2008 at 03:47 AM by synthetic (Synthetically Speaking)

I am sitting here going through over 250 shots I took this eve. I hadn't realized I had so many (shooting compressed RAW and my shoot count wasn't accurate because of this). I realized the amount was huge when it took forever to download from direct from the camera. Now I understand why most people opt for a CF card reader. It drains my camera battery quickly to download many large photos.

So, now I have them loaded and I slowly go through them and start to discard the ones with no...

Its starting to finally "click"...

Posted 07-18-2008 at 07:03 PM by synthetic (Synthetically Speaking)

The different settings for aperture and shutter speed and their relation to one another has finally sunk into my head. Many times, I am too focused on the shot to think about what my settings are.... I know... scary isn't it. But, now that I am getting more practice and checking the settings to see what I used... its starting to finally "click"... and yes the pun was intended lol.

So, on my last expedition I thought about this more as I was shooting. I even started to use...

The ants go marching.......

Posted 07-17-2008 at 03:58 PM by supertackyman (supertackyman's BIOblog.)

Woke up Sunday to ants cruising around on my computer desk. just a few scouts here and there. smooshed them and put out some ant killer spray and grants stakes outside. that seemed to stop them until today.
this morning they had made their way to the other end of the house and were letting themselves in thru the back door. so I POURED out the rest of the jug all around the back side of the house perimeter. It usually happens during the summer monsoon season. every storm brings refugees into...

Favorite Vintage Video Arcade Game

Vintage being the key word, implies that to answer this question you had to have blown a substantial amount of quarters (or tokens) on video arcade games in the early 80's.

I believe I mentioned in previous blog posts that back in the early 80's my older brother worked for Putt-Putt. This Putt-Putt had a huge room of arcade games and every evening he would empty each one and restock the "token" machine (it took your money and gave you special tokens to play the games...
