Thermite Fun -Video

Filed under: — Mattp9 @ 3:40 pm


Check out this fun with Thermite.

I liked the part where they burn through the engine of a car.

I always did enjoy playing with fire as a kid.

Burning large piles of tree limbs and stuff with kerosene was a hoot!

Ah those were the days.

These are the days too!

RDS Bird 15

Took this during my first session with my Red Dot Site - used to take pictures of moving objects.

Took about 200 shots and only a very few came through without blur - I’m learning!!

I like the effect on this one.

Had dinner and took the annual family Christmas picture tonight.

I like the results.

Nice smiles all around.

Fair notice: I had shoes on, Chris did not!

Christmas Tree Zoom

Visited the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library & Museum today.

During a break, took a series of photos doing the zoom thing at the same time.

Nice effect.

Enjoy!

Tom & Russ Birthday 2005

Tom & Russ Birthday 2005

This is a collage that I put together of photos taken at a birthday party for my Father-in-law Tom and my nephew Russ.

I was trying out my external flash and the light difuser - Gary Fong’s Light Sphere Photo Journalist II with Dome Difuser.

The difuser gives great lighting effects. Very natural. I’m still learning, as I surely can tell.

The nice thing about doing a collage, is that it puts all the photos that tell the story in one place.

I’m learning the collage software also.

Lots to learn in life.
