Forest Fire Sunset
Over the weekend there has been a forest fire in the Olympic National Park, which has caused some amazing sunsets here in Seattle. While it is normal to get strong red and orange sunsets, tonight we got blue, purple, orange, and red. Beautiful stuff.
Time Lapse in South Dakota
Here is a clip from my cross country drive from Boston to Seattle last year. I hope to have the entire thing posted shortly.
Dreaming of a New Camera. Canon 60D.
Canon announced a new camera last week, the widely rumored Canon 60D. This fits right in between the highly successful prosumer Canon 7D and the consumer Canon T2i. It has all the weather proofing and build quality of the big brother 7D, but is priced within range of the T2i with the same lens. I am seriously considering picking up the 60D when it goes on sale later this month. I have been looking at a DSLR camera for quite some time and I think the 60D would fit all my needs. Excellent photos, interchangeable lenses, and 1080p video recording. I have been working with my Panasonic FZ28 for a couple years now. The zoom is great, but the lack of control in low lighting really hurts photos I take while I’m at concerts. I typically have to use the flash, which really ruins the look. Also just having more control over the shutter speed, ISO, and light metering would be awesome.
Well back to collecting cans to pay for this bad boy.
