Walk a little farther (56K photography warning)
Posted: 2008-07-08 02:59am
Due to my inherent procrastination and lack of pep (and time), I usually end up in the same 2-3 places (stretches of beach) just about every weekend. Since I still don't have the energy for hours long drives and to find hiking maps, I instead decided to try to find beach stretches that aren't normally visited, despite being close to my house. (relatively speaking).
This first attempt was a righteous flop, due to realizing only at the end that I'd left the camera's ISO settings on 1600. Yes, ISO 1600 on a bright summer day.
At any rate, take a look and feel free as always to leave as much commentary and critique as possible

Carry a camera everywhere. Even to the public loo

I asked permission 3-4 times until she understood me, she agreed, than 5 seconds later her large overly muscular brute of a husband came up and started yelling at me in Russian.
Conclusion? Either don't ask and avoid trouble, or get a written permission slip for the person you're asking.

Yeah, lame as hell. I wasted enough time trying this idea out, that i'll be damned if I don't show the attempt at least.

A special kind of charm.
