Julie (56/100) - Blind leading the blind


Well this shoot was a train-wreck from the beginning. I post it this morning when I see what Ann has posted. We have similar problems.

This is the Art Gallery at the University. Paul is the volunteer for the lunch period. He has a law degree with ten years practice but is looking for a change and curatorial work appeals. Both he and I knew I could not photograph the art works .. and the "reception desk" was in a corner.

Picture 1: tungsten
Picture 2: fluoro
Picture 3: flash

by the end I could not even focus properly.

I can't leave you lonely without a comment Julie but as I am not struggling with all these parameters you guys are trying to manage I haven't got a lot to say, other than I am at least aware of what WB is these days. It makes a good tutorial on the topic.

Other than that ... the place has a nice ceiling :-)

Yes, you can! I knew this was going to happen and I am spending the time reading and experimenting with settings.

I am also working on posts for my other blogs and applying for a new job.

So, do not worry about commenting UNLESS there is something you need to say. Okay?

The flash one certainly has the better light but its too bright. I have no idea what the solution is. Was trying to take photos in Adelaide market with absolutely no success. All too dark. Love the ceiling.

I figure that even 100 posts is not going to be enough to sort many issues. However, I am so chuffed with some of the experimenting I am doing. Even if it does not work first time. That's how I learn: by stuffing up!
