holding time

Thursday, November 11, 2010: Still Life
Still life with fruit and a window
This was shot with the white balance set for incandescent lighting so what is indoors has a natural hue while the outdoors has a blue hue.
This was shot with the white balance set for daylight. Notice how the part of the shot that is inside the apartment is yellowish while the part of the shot outside the window has a more natural hue.

In an unplanned series of events, Julio and I ended up at Stage Bar listening to local SD band Circa Now last night. Well most of Circa Now... From the band's facebook page, it seems like the girl doesn't usually perform with them; instead, it looks like they have another guitarist... Thus, last night's performance was a "pared down," as the guitarist explained, version of the band.
Because I had my camera with me and the show was relaxed, not too big of a crowd, I decided to shoot the band. After, I talked the guitarist, who told me they'd be interested in seeing the shots and possibly using them for their webpage(s).
Here's what I got...
A little post production done here, but not on all the photos. I had to move the ISO all the way up to 6400 to reduce blurred movements, hence the grainy look to all the photos.
All in all good work... But I'd like to get closer next time.

These are photo slides from when I first learned to use a camera in manual mode. I was a freshman in college at UT at the time. I found these in a box. They are some of my very first rounds of film. Bc they are slides, I had to hold them up to the window and take pics of them to share them here.
This is the view from my dorm window on the 20th floor of the Castilian.
This is an alley somewhere in west campus. Back before I even knew what street photography was ;)
These were taken in Metro coffee shop, which used to be right across Guadelupe from the west mall of campus. I think it may be a different coffee shop now.
