Finally managed to get a nice quality pro-sumer DSLR camera with cool features and much more flexibility than a point-and-shoot? Check. Decent photography skills? Yep. (Often enough at least.) Now finding things to shoot - that leads to... Smokin' hot model with looks similar to Adriana Lima to best demonstrate the first two parts of the formula? Nope. I could only wish. Particularly on my remaining budget. Darn it! (And you can only get so far with cool or funny cat pictures.) Nor do I consider myself that photogenic a dude to do a self-portrait for the ladies out there, perhaps it's better-off staying behind the camera. Can't have everything... So... To work with what I've got. Ice is nice. Last month's icicles to be exact. (All melted by now.) I should have used manual focus in the light I had, but it was kind of too dark to see anyways. This is a somewhat long exposure while using a tripod and providing the illumination with an LED flashlight being waved back and forth. Out of the shots taken, at least this one turned out ok. The process also had my next-door neigbors looking at me funny.
