Great exposure on the car. I wouldn't know a "good angle" from a total fail. I notice you guys shooting all these angles and the almost never strike me as "right." What makes a "good angle?" Really, I'm curious and asking. Dave

Agreed. I was equally impressed with Santo Spirito but they were pretty adamant about no photography there.

The Flickr full size is great and one day I hope to get something like that but they have to move slower and I have to move faster. I haven't thought about ISO with them with all the light. I'll use crazy ISO indoors to get the good exposure but don't think about that outside.

Just don't automatically or blindly set your ISO at 100, just because there's full sun. The current generation of cameras allow much more flexibility. Think about DOF, shutter speed, etc. then set the ISO as low as you can and still achieve your SS and DOF goals. With this lens (most lenses really) f/11 is about the limit before diffraction starts smearing details. I'd rather shoot at f/8 to minimize diffraction and maximize details, but I HAD TO have DOF for this kind of macro shooting. Hence, I shot at f/11. Dave

Thanks Dave.
Gary, High ISO, UWA lens, hyperfocal guess, F8,IS on, mirror lock up and shutter on multiple slow shots. Stand in the center, rotate around looking at the marvels and "accidentally" hold down your shutter button while turning with the camera at your hip. It will be quiet with the mirror locked up. Then leave before the Swiss Guard locks you up.

i typically do rolling shots by myself, while driving my own car. the D700 + 24-70MM lens weighs almost 5lbs and trying to shoot one handed at anythying under 1/90 is NOT going to happen. i got much better blur when the sun sets, which is great, but it was just after noon on that day with the sun blazing like crazy. on this particular day i knew 1/90th wasn't going to get the real blur effect i like, but at least 95% of the pictures would come out super crispy and tack sharp, with a little blur. i've shot at 1/60th and 1/40th before but i would say 6 out of 15 shots came out perfect. too much motion blur when you're trying to drive AND shoot at the same time. |

Thanks. I really like this last brunette and your close crop here. The neon on her back and left hand calls too much attention to itself, but she almost succeeds in keeping me looking higher. Her butt shot ain't bad either.

What arm pit, I'm trying to figure out Modded or Stock.
The neon blue is not a good thing but I like the colors of the bottles in the back.
