More spill over from my 365 blog. Last night after the babe went to bed I started playing with candles and shutter speed. Then I played in Lightroom 3 and made these story boards in Photoshop Elements 8. I’ve really been enjoying photography but the more I learn the more I realize I need to learn. I have a feeling I can stick with this hobby for a very long time with getting bored.
Comparing these two candles was interesting. Even with the shutter speed set at 30 seconds the red candle didn’t completely lose all detail to the light. Sure it needed a little extra editing to recover some of the details but it’s still pretty clear. The white candle completely blew out most of the detail to a point where it could not be recovered at shutter speeds slower than 1/30 of a second.


I was about to hit publish and realized I added the pictures in opposite orders on the two boards. Hopefully it’s not too confusing since I added the shutter speed to the actual frames.
