OT:Sorry!

2010-07-31 Thread Sandra Hermann
I am not sure what happened to my Yahoo account. I have not been able to sign 
in for a few weeks now, Then I find out on facebook that I am sending weird 
messages to people.  Then I find out from my dad I sent him a Viagra 
advertisement. So I sent Yahoo an email, which they answered to my yahoo 
account which I could not sign in.  Finally, tonight I got back into my 
account.  I am sorry for the inconvenience I am sure this must have caused all 
of you.  I am not really sure what happened, I thought Mac's didn't get virus 
so they couldn't spread crap like that.  
Once again, I am very sorry
sweet dreams

Re: PESO: Erica and Phil

2010-03-21 Thread Sandra Hermann
Good Luck Dave.  It's a lot of fun. I also realized it was really hard to shoot 
with tears in my eyes... It was hard to let a picture go that the smile was 
fine on, but so unnatural.  I think Knowing these kids as well as I did made it 
really hard to shoot the wedding.  It has also made me very picky in choosing 
the good shots.  I wish I had some help from someone who didn't know them as 
well as I do.

PESO: Erica and Phil

2010-03-20 Thread Sandra Hermann
http://samsphotopage.blogspot.com/2010/03/erica-and-phil.html

I shot a wedding today.  It was pretty fun. I took over 1000 pictures.  This is 
my favorite. http://samsphotopage.blogspot.com/2010/03/erica-and-phil.html
I laughed my butt off when the sister of the bride told me that I needed to 
stop paying attention to the bride and watch what she was doing.  
Overall, it was a good experience.  I learned a lot from it.  The biggest thing 
I learned is that I have a broken lens.

Re: OT: PESO Sami in Karate class and a few other Things that probably interest no one in the world but me...

2010-03-19 Thread Sandra Hermann
Not Nearly what I had before my ex pawned them for sex/drugs and didn't bother 
to tell me so I could get them back.   I have a 20mm 2.8 I believe.  my 100 mmm 
macro which is 2.8 also.  Two 50mm lens. One of which is a newer one that is 
2.82 I believe and the other one says 1.7 on it.   and the 100-300 4.5 (the 
camera store lady actually laughed at that lens the other day said it wasn't a 
Pentax lens it was to big.) and the lens that came on my pz70 when I bought it. 
 I am sure it is nothing special.

Well Crap I gave one of those to my cousin because, my mom's cousin gave it to 
me and Ben had a very old pentax camera but no lens.  Crap Crap Crap.  I can't

OT: PESO Sami in Karate class and a few other Things that probably interest no one in the world but me...

2010-03-17 Thread Sandra Hermann
First the Peso: http://samsphotopage.blogspot.com/2010/03/karate-class.html

I did my first firmware upgrade ever today.  I had no idea how to do them and 
was petrified of the whole process.  Now my k10d finally has the latest update. 
 The reason for this update is the fact that I am shooting a wedding Sat and I 
want to use my flash off camera.  Now to figure that part out. I hate shooting 
weddings.  I can't mess up, I don't like that kind of pressure.  

I also was curious how I could take better pictures of the kids in the Karate 
class if I don't have a fast enough lens and I don't have the money to buy a 
better one.  I thought I was doing alright buying stuff while I had a job, but 
I was buying more for nature photography and now every one wants action photo's 
from me.  Wrong stuff.  

I got a 2x converter last month.  I found eagles so I had to have it to take 
pictures of them.  I still wasn't close enough.  But next year I will figure 
out a better plan.

Re: Why Pentax?

2010-01-16 Thread Sandra Hermann
Pentax fits my hands.  And when you work with your hands and they hurt all the 
time that is very very important!
I could afford Pentax.  I had a reasonable job, I could buy lots of stuff for 
my Pentax and not feel like I "got taken". 
The glass is good!  Very good in my opinion.  
When I touched my first Pentax I knew it was mine!  That was my pz-70.  Then 
when I went digital it was the same feeling.

PESO: Blonde and Crew

2009-12-18 Thread Sandra Hermann
This was a spur of the moment shot with my new P&S. I should have gone inside 
and gotten the "real" camera and my longish lens, but I didn't know how much 
time I would have. 
It is a lovely day to be outside right now.   It was supposed to start snowing 
a few hours ago, but it is still warm out.

Really?  My K10D does not impress me one bit.  It has serious "White out" 
issues.  It seems to take most of it's pictures so white they are useless.  Now 
the funny thing is, I won't buy a new one because I'm determined to figure out 
what is wrong with this one.  (or maybe it is the lack of a job)  Actually I'm 
wondering if maybe I have an issue with it reading one of my lenses.  I've had

The mall cop said because other children were on the Carousel it was illegal. I 
didn't believe him, but didn't wanna take a chance either.

I was taking picture of Sami on a Mall carousel around town and the security 
guard told me I needed to get out of there they had called the police.  He gave 
me enough warning I could get away Mom stayed with Sami while I walked away and 
the cops did show up.

I read a magazine at the library the other day about "the fifth largest" 
wireless company in the US.  He is, to the best of my understanding, Mixing a 
cb radio, fax machine, landline kind of thing and making a "better" wireless 
company.  I don't get how it works except your handheld communicates to an 
antenna on a landline poll near where you are at, then it transmits that to the 
landline and either uses fax for data or the landline for voice.  It only works 
in larger areas and is much cheaper.  That may be a better way to give us 
excellent service.  I wish I was trained technically so I could have understood 
it more.

I am in Illinois about 10 minutes from St. Louis.  I generally tell people I am 
from St. Louis, it makes me feel a bit safer in the big bad world of crazy 
people.  Although it is a false sense of security, because I now know that if 
someone wants to find me they will.  I have spent the last thirteen years of my 
life working on the other side of St. Louis, so I paid Mo taxes.  I go to 
school in St. Louis now so basically I am from St. Louis.  I have never owned a 
house in Missouri though.

Yeah his faulty arguement is kind of annoying to all of us Americans who are 
out of work because our jobs were shipped out of the country.
It wouldn't be so bad, if I had gone to see where my job went and knew it was 
bettering the people, but when I went and saw where my job was shipped to 
(before it was shipped out of the country, I went to train their employees)  I 
noticed that the people were not being helped by the jobs.  They spent money 
bribing the Governments of both countries that they couldn't pay the workers 
very much!

Re: Flash issue with my k10d

2009-11-27 Thread Sandra Hermann
It worked tonight!  Not really sure what I did different, but it did work.  I 
made sure it was all the way in.  I also recalled that my manuel was in the 
desk drawer.  So I dug it out and studied up on some things that I need 
refreshed.

Re: OT Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! Christine, I am with you photographing black 
friday would be a very exciting moment. If you didn't get trampled in the

worry about it.  It is to scary to take her out in that mess.

Flash issue with my k10d

2009-11-25 Thread Sandra Hermann
I was trying to shoot family portraits for my ex mother in law today, so I put 
my flash on the k10d and for some reason it would not fire.  The flash will 
fire when I put it on the *ds but It won't fire on the k10d.  I have the 
af-360fgz. flash.   Naturally I cannot find the book for the camera or the 
flash.  Any ideas?   I am charging my battery for the camera just in case it 
didn't have enough juice to fire the flash, but I don't really think that could 
be the problem.   And yes it would be lovely to go by the newest addition to 
the Pentax family, but I am unemployed so that is not an option.

The world around me seems to be rather dreary so I thought maybe I could cheer

http://samsphotopage.blogspot.com/2009/11/orange-and-yellow-flower.html
I think this picture may be sharp in all the wrong places.  I'm posting it to 
see if you agree with me.  I think the middle part of the flower should have 
been sharper, although I like the yellow part the best.

Yes the links are close.  I"ll try to figure out how to change them later, I

I'm working on that too.  Dad is a perfectionist.  We call him aunt Bee when it 
comes to cleaning.  LOL  I am not sure the model trains ever get dirty.  We 
were on a garden tour and he had me out there with a q-tip cleaning them.  It 
was nuts!

Thanks.  I am trying to make it look "real"  I've come close, but I have never 
pulled it off yet.  I guess when you are playing with plastic, you don't have a 
good chance for realism.

Apparently I did something goofy. I just got two messages, the first one 
without a link and the second one with a link.  I only sent one.  Don't know 
what I did wrong.  I did that for Matt the other night too when I sent him a 
link so It is something i'm doing.

I followed it and it took me to the straight-er one.  This morning I'm not so 
sure it is straight, but I know I used those little lines in the box on the

Re: PESO: two tries....

2009-11-07 Thread Sandra Hermann
I'm thinking I must not be on the level this month!  Are maybe I think it's 
art?  Maybe I should steal my dad's little level and try to use it next time I 
take a picture.  Then again, I would probably be half a bubble off anyway so it 
wouldn't work.

Cars are going the way of computers!  They are outdated before they are

any quick advice for halloween shots ?

2009-10-31 Thread Sandra Hermann
This will be my first year to be able to trick or treat.  Seeing as I have 
worked nights since 1995 I have never done much dark photography.  Any tips? 
Sami is wearing a pink princess costume.   Should I take a tripod or would that 
be to much of a hassle?  I have a flash.  Would that ruin the "moment"?
I hate trick or treating always have I really don't want to go, so I have to 
take the camera.

This is actually my third suck into this wonderful vortex.  I never really mean 
to leave;  I would live here if I could. I remember your name so I was probably 
still around when you got here.


I'm curious about the contrast on this computer also.  It is a laptop and I'm 
not sure it is always in the right spot.  Did you see all three versions?  One 
of them totally sucks.  One of them was before edit the other was after edit. 
Do you see the arch often?
