Centennial park just seems like a columbia md staple... so i went there and shot it last night at sunset... not a cloud in the sky but whatever... a student just dropped by my room that works there and said they might start shutting the boating area down earlier because of 'gangs' ::shakes head::
the location i was really hoping for to turn out didn't turn out at all... but i did get these...
i've been debating on if i should spend the extra $50 for a multicoated polarizer when I buy one... which will be over a $100 accessory... but i seem to shoot into the sun a lot so... i'm thinking i might make the splurge.
i ussualy give people that still shoot film a hard time... but i shot with mike shoemaker last night and he busts out this old school vintage medium format camera... i spent a little bit of time looking at it and i shut up real quick. its pretty rad stuff. this guy knows way more about photography than i do. he was shooting the whole night without a light meter... i'd be blind without a light meter.
and the group shot.
things i am realizing that i really need... another gig of ram for my computer and a friggin' usb card reader cause this pci crap takes forever.
other things i need to buy soon... a tripod :(
and a polarizer
how much do you think those two accessories will cost me?
i'm looking to spend a little over $300 on those to things... i rather put that money towards a new lens but I guess thats the world of photography. expensive accessories.

wow!
i'll admit,
i don't really understand all this "photography talk"
hahaa,
but great photos! i love the one in the grass.
Some of the multi-coated polarizers out there can leave weird splotchieness on skin, so be careful when you're looking for one. I have no idea where to begin on that stuff. Sorry! And good luck!
:o)
hannah, i don't think i understand all the "photography talk" either... i just like taking pictures. :)
rachel... good to know, i'm not sure i want to pay over a hundred bucks for a filter anyway... we'll see what happens.
cool photos...they make the park look more exciting for sure. And that little Rolliflex or whatever it was that your friend has is pretty awesome.
I had a good time with the family; thanks :D
multicoated will change your life. especially since you don't have a lens hood for your wide angle, your real prone to flare
gah... multicoated... tooo mmuccch monnneeey
lol, if your looking for cheap stuff, you picked the wrong hobby/profession :)
yeah you're right... i wish i would have picked like cross stich or something...
