Bountiehunter DAY 4


This was a difficult shot to get. First I got the lighting shutter etc right. I aimed the flash at a spot 4 feet in front of me. Then I set the manual focus by sticking a card at that distance to a light stand with a piece of gum. After that all I needed to do was. Hit the button run to my seat get the cards in hand be sure to not look down too much be on the left side of the table but not too far so I don't go off camera don't make a funny face throw the cards at just the right time don't throw them too fast to hard too high or in front of my face be sure to have a decent hand position when throwing. Did I mention throw them at JUST the right time. I swear to god I took this shot 1000 times. I'm happy with the results.

This is awesome! Lol! I can see how it took you a while to get it right at first, but well worth the "while" :P Haha I was wondering how you managed to throw them at the right time! This would have worked a lot more smoothly if you had a remote! :P I am going to start my photo the week coming up. I just got 100 things on the go here.

Hey do it when it works for you. I'm interested in seeing what you come up with. Definitely would have worked better with a remote. I could have just hit the darn thing with my toe lol. As it was, I did my best to count down when the timer started beeping like crazy. It came out to about 3 seconds or less. I wish it would just beep slowly so you could count them out. Otherwise It was just luck.

Oh wow, I love that day four shot! I don't think I'd have the patience to do it haha. The only thing I would have loved to see in it would be a larger focus area (or w/e you want to call it) so that you too were in focus. hm. Or maybe not.... Well, it's a great shot none the less :D

Personally I think him not being in focus only adds to the shot...

Thank you ? LoL

My wife really liked the card shots so she took some time to shop one for me.


Bountiehunter DAY 5


Booyah homemade snoot out of a macaroni box. Thought the damn noodles would be in a bag. Dumped them out in the cupboard without thinking about it. Wife wanted to kill me.

On a side note. Wife didn't resize image. I'm too lazy to take it back now. Hit F11 for your viewing pleasure.

Nah doesn't really take all that long to do. Your only looking for the one good shot. Just get an Idea of what you want to do during the day. Figure out the way your going to do it. When it comes time to take the shot it shouldn't be so bad.

Unless your me....

Today I had an idea of what I wanted. Couldn't quite get it to work out. Started getting late so I took this just so I have something. I need to start taking these sooner than just before I go to bed. I might start looking better if I do. B) . I cant take this depressing thing seriously anymore. I just cant do it.

I call this one "Oh meh gosh you killed my puppy?"
