Picture of the Day

[monst0r]

Guys, Today is one of the Most Celebrated Sacred Festival related with God called "Janmastmi" in my Country.
So a Happy Janmastmi to You and you Family.

What you are seeing in this picture are kids making Pyramids (climbing on each other) to reach a high spot where the grown ups hang a Pot made of mud in which there are sweets, chocolates, butter (the God celebrated here used to like Butter a lot) and many fruits, the kids have to reach that pot and break it and share the feast, in Bigger metro cities, the Pots are hung as high as 6-7 stories high, where you can see the biggest pyramid formations in the World.

That sounds awesome anp, wish I could see it in real life.

found this little guy in the bathroom this morning.
including leg span he is about as big as a silver dollar (for us americans who know how big that is).
huge fangs!
only had 3 legs on one side
poor quality as i was taking pictures of him inside a glass jar and also a clear plastic box, so.... i used the best thing i could fine to get clear shots.

Canon 40D
50mm F/1.8 prime
1x, 2x, 3x Macro Tube (different pictures using different adapters)
iso100
fstop is not available because of the macro tube but given shutter speed it would probably be f-1.8
exposure 1/20th to 1/100th

I decided to do some weird experiments with long exposures, and I don't care if they turned out like crap, they were fun. So I share one with you.

This is a bracketed 3 shot pic done with 0,-2,+2 exp. I know the lighting is off and it isnt a great image but it is the first decent one I have done. I had to send my D5000 back to Nikon a second time today so I am a little bummed. =(

Thanks Lestat, I always feel strange showing off my pics because I think nearly everyone here is so much more advanced than I am, I have had a couple of suggestions PM'd to me about how I am make some of these shots better and that is why show some of my pictures, to get feed back and learn.
