Last night I was trying to show Libby the main reason I bought the D70 in the first place.
\nI tried to explain it and I came out sounding like a pre-schooler talking about my big wheel.<\/p>\n

I’m still working on learning how this thing works. I’ve got the internal workings of the D70 down. I can change things in the settings. I have veered away the ‘auto’ buttons and have began programming. I will tell you though, I have some serious learning to do. 9 out of 10 of my pictures come out like shit. I will keep trying though.<\/p>\n

So last night I tried to explain, “I want what I am focusing on to be IN focus and everything else OUT of focus.”<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nPINK IN FOCUS<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nLIGHT PINK IN FOCUS<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nWHITE IN FOCUS<\/p>\n

<\/a>
\nBLUE IN FOCUS<\/p>\n

The thing I hate; is in order to get these shots last night I had to have it set at these settings:<\/p>\n

Exposure: 0.2 sec (1\/5)
\nAperture: f\/4.5
\nFocal Length: 70 mm
\nExposure Bias: 1 EV
\nISO Speed: 1600<\/p>\n

(if you have flickr, it will let you open the pictures at the largest setting which is ‘friggin huge’ and you can see having the iso at that large of a setting makes the pictures grainy.<\/p>\n

I have a feeling Shaun has a setting on this computer that it will start zapping me so I am going to go back to bed. The boy plugged in the Xbox in my room so I should be fine for today.<\/p>\n

Anyone bored and want to call me???<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
