Over the last few weeks there has been a movie being filmed at Mount Hermon as part of the summer program. After a small bit part earlier in the film, I got to participate again, this time playing a paparazzi photographer at a red carpet event. Of course I took the shots for realzies and it was actually a really fun time. I also got to borrow a Canon 580 flash for the evening. I don’t currently have an external flash and since it is a part of Canon’s big summer sale, I’ve been thinking about picking one up. While the majority of my low light shooting is at Vintage and in situations (like during the service) where using a flash isn’t a real option, it still would be a very useful tool to have. The onboard flash on the 30D is woefully inadequate and as I’m looking toward a 5D (which doesn’t have a flash) as my future camera it’s something I’ll need eventually anyway. Head on over to flickr to check out the shots.

More proof that Seattle is awesome.

I went out tonight to take pictures of the moon originally but it had already set buy the time I got out there. Oh well, I ended up with some great star pics instead. I just need to pick up a corded shutter release and I’ll really be in business!

More flickr pics, hurray! I went down with a group from Vintage today to the Point Lobos State Reserve outside of Monterey. Pretty cool place, I definitely want to make it back there sometime, hopefully soon.

Had my first Santa Cruz Halloween experience tonight. Definitely an interesting event! Head over to flickr to check out my latest shots.

Not much new going on, just some new pics. Check ‘em out!
