Lest I become known as that tiresome guy who only posts pix of pretty women, here's a dog too. :-)
http://goo.gl/2HkSk This is our vet, Dr. Gitte Fenger DVM, left, and Tessa, our German Short Haired Pointer, right. Dr. Fenger is having an open house at her clinic in April to help promote her practice, and my wife is helping out with some promo to the local papers and such. So enter Mr. Photographer, me. As soon as Dr. Fenger spotted me with the big black SLR and the 50-135 with its hood on, she went into deer-caught-in-the-headlamps mode. Took me a lot of shots until she became relaxed again. But she adores animals so as she interacted with the dog she became herself. Useful trick that's worked before. :-) I took this in the afternoon in her main consultation room, with its large north-west facing windows. All found light, no flash. I did notice that the matrix metering was fooled by something so I went manual and incident-metered the light. Seems the more I shoot, the less I rely on automation. Is this some sort of creeping curmudgeonalization setting in? K20D, DA* 50-135/2.8 @ f/4, 125th, ISO 400. I wish Tessa's nose was less soft, but I'd have had to stop down and either add the flash or up the ISO, and I was running out of time. Oh well, what ya gonna do? Comments welcome but unlikely due to the content. ;-) -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
