Christmas score and more

Christmas


Scored this Christmas with a Canon PowerShot A560 from my boyfriend's parents. Yes, it's not a 12 megapixel, or even a 10, but it takes pretty good pics in my opinion, and it's a pretty neat camera. I'm still trying to familiarize myself with it. Taking pictures [with this camera] is a little different from what I'm used to, but ya know. It's got up to a 15 sec time exposure setting, but I don't see a setting for faster than a 1 sec. I'm messing around with the macro too, and I think I may have that figured out. This is my first digital camera, so I feel like an old person trying to figure out how the DVD player works, hehe.

I also got a 61" tripod from my boyfriend, so finally I can take decent long exposures without it looking like an earthquake struck :D


Other


I would like to thank those that added favorites of mine over the time I've been absent. While I would like to personally thank you, I have a lot to do, and I want to focus on updating and possibly putting up some new pictures. I am ever appreciative.

I had a strange dream the other night, something about my house, and it looking different (it rarely looks the way it's suppose to). I can't remember everything that happened, but towards the end, there was a strange Johnny Depp movie on, and if I can remember the plot to it and all that fun stuff, I could possibly have a nice script on my hands :lmao:

I still don't get long exposure. How would it change the resulting picture?

The longer the exposure time, the longer the shutter is open and the more light can enter. It's good for low light shots. Also, you can blur action signifigantly with a longer exposure. For instance, a slower shutter speed will allow you to do things like this: [link] where a fast shutter speed can allow you to do things like this: [link] or [link] (and you know how fast humming birds are ;))

That water balloon one was cool.

I can remember wondering for a very long time how they captured traffic lights like that ([link]).
