Photography : Photo Of The Week : #103 7.9.2006
 



If you find this photo interesting, stay tuned for more.  I had a little bit of spare time this evening, and felt like doing something a little bit creative.  I took my Canon S80 camera, set it to a one second exposure, and tossed it around after pushing the shutter button.  It took me a while to get the effect I wanted.  This is a combination of a stain-glass desk lamp in the evening twilight out the window.

I'm going to keep experimenting with this technique as I have time. 

This is one of the things I really like about the Canon S50 -- it's compact enough to make this type of work feasible, but still has a high level of photographic control that I'm used to on my Canon 10D.  I also like the fact that it accepts the same type-2 micro drives as I use in my SLR.  I also like that it takes movies, which is a fun feature in a small camera.  I bought the camera used at B&H for about $200 bucks, and I've been really happy with it.
