Bendigo Night Shoot

                                                                    These 3 ladies stood quite still for the shot and I didn't have to ask them to sign a model release form.
A couple of different ideas for a night shoot. The cafe scene was captured at  ISO3200, 1/5 sec, at F8. This just froze the scene enough except for the movement behind and to the left. Also this was croped at 1400x1050 the new size !!!!!!

Bendigo Night Shoot


Bendigo Camera Club had another great turn out for the night shoot(23 in all). The fountain group took many different shots of the fountain and surrounds. After the fountain we meandered up view street taking shop front windows finally arriving at the Capital Theatre. Here Ed reckons his phone camera did a better job at the shop front window display than his Canon. I hope you all gained a better understanding of your camera on the night.

Bendigo @ Night

Fantastic support for our Bendigo @ Night photo shoot.
Warm evening, no wind, no moon and a great bunch of photographers made for an enjoyable evening.
Here are a few happy snappers in Bull Street.
Looking forward to seeing some of the photos at the next Print Group meeting in April

Tawny Frogmouth

I took this fellow with one hand aiming the torch and the other hand holding the camera. It was a tricky shot seeing I had only a 17-70 lens. But I was lucky enough to get within a few metres.

Face Plant

Annoying when you can't see the face!
Ouch, that must have hurt.
