Fall???

>> Friday, October 16, 2009

Yes it is early fall - and we had SNOW today!!!! NOT good (although I do have to have to say sitting by my woodstove all day was quite nice).

But it is kind of depressing when you consider we have been known to have snow until May. That is EIGHT more months for anyone counting. I don't really mind it now actually, but by January/February I will be aching for a bit of sun and warmth.

I expected to have a busy weekend with 3 photo shoots - but with snow and rain predicted for tomorrow, one of two sessions was rescheduled and I am doubtful the second will take place either. No biggie. I would much rather do a photo session when the weather was in the 60's than in the 30's and dark and dreary. Yuck. I also have another session for Sunday morning, but hopefully we will see a bit of sun by then.

In other photography news.....I got my new D90 yesterday. Thanks to the lovely weather, I spent more time inside keeping warm than taking photos. But I did snap a few of my youngest. She wasn't too keen on the whole thing, but I didn't care. I jacked up the ISO to 1600 - which was almost unusable on my D80 and got this!

ISO 1600 on the new D90

Not bad! Not a very cooperative subject, but only a trace of noise. Whoooo HOOOOO!!!!

Even though I am glad I am not taking photos tomorrow morning in the dark, rain and snow - I am looking forward to really trying out the new toy!!! I may have to torture the young-uns tomorrow.....

Oh and tomorrow night is an unexpected date night with hubby so that is WAY cool!!!

Have a good one!

Wow!! I must be doing something wrong exposure wise. I will have to do some playing around tomorrow too!

That is awesome for ISO 1600! I really want the new replacement for the D3 that is coming out soon! But, in reality, the D80 will likely have to suffice for a while....Congrats on the new camera!
