Canon 1D Mark II

[Wannabe]

Been shooting in about every setting on the camera, and every medium to be shot. Still no high speed stuff though.
I am going to shoot everything for the first long while without touching photoshop or running adjustments on the camera. I want to get to be a better photographer whith this deal, rather than lean on the touch up world as a crutch.
My wife did want me to shoot a couple of her cat. And since this is a cat happy place, may I introduce one of my first pictures, and the woman that runs the house. Cally Miller. This one with the 24-70 in standard bedroom lighting.

Oh, I cannot wait to shoot real objects.

Very impressive. No flash? What White Balance setting; auto or adjusted for tungsten, etc?

Colors look great!

Peace,

Curtis

That was shot dead flat. No adjustments whatsoever. Just playing with f-stops and speeds to attempt to capture as much deep color as possible. Still trying everything in the book. Made just about every mistake you can do in the first week. That is the way I learn these things. By testing how far you can go in each direction before the picture dies. I do have about 150 dead pictures already. Of 300 total. The forgiveness of this camera is much wider than I was told. Quite impressed. I think I will like this.
Still in search of the illusive "perfect shot"
