Come on and Join the Vertigo

Same story as above, a colour converstion, shot with the F5 and a 17mm lens, giving that slightly fisheye effect. 

Parking garage staircase near where I work.

Expanding the View

In addition to the open floor plan, the lighting was good enough to bring my wide angle into the show. I lost a stop and a third of light, going from 1.8 to 2.8, but there was still enough for some full band shots. The lights over the musician on the left side of the picture were burnt out however, so some of the bands I shot didn't include all the band members. Hopefully the venue has fixed that for tonight.

Spiral Dreams

This weekend was a hot air balloon festival north of me. Got up at 4am to head out that way and catch the balloons during sunrise.

Didn't quite work out that way, but did get a chance to go up in a hot air balloon. This is a shot from my new Nikon D2x looking straight up into it.

Had great fun, and there will be more pictures to come.

BTW, over 9000 pages views on my journal, yay!
