It is getting so dark so early that I am having more trouble getting my shooting done while it is still bright enough for me to get some good photos. So I am moving indoors more than I would like to. Here is my latest indoor photo.

The Hills Are Aflame
This is the fireplace on the third floor of Duvall.

There is a lot construction going on around campus. This photo is taken right next to Duvall where they are building the newest dorm. The tools make a lovely sound at 8 in the morning.

I adjusted the levels, exposure, contrast, saturation, temperature, and reduced noise.

This is, undoubtedly, my worst photo. Mainly because I wanted to hit my self-imposed deadline of one photo a day, and had to rush to make that happen.

Erasercouch
I adjusted the levels, exposure, contrast, saturation, and reduced the noise.
Exposure Information:
Aperture: f/2.8
I took this with my iPhone so it doesn’t give me any more information.

I have been so busy this week so far that I have had little time to take photos, but I have managed to keep up on it, even if the next two are pretty crummy.

Today I kind of ran out of time and just went for anything really. It’s not up to the level of my normal ones, but it isn’t awful (I hope).

Sobe
I adjusted the levels, exposure, contrast, and tint.

I went out, once again, into the blustery-ness of Spokane’s fall weather. I noticed the giant transformer located next to the village and thought I could get some cool shots of the decay of it. Here it is:

The abundance of bikes on campus means there are plenty of opportunities to capture some interesting photos. I went to the bike rack right in front of Duvall and took 123 shots of the bikes. Here is the best one:

Ferrous
I adjusted the levels, exposure, contrast, saturation, and temperature.
Exposure information:
Shutter: 1/240
Aperture: f/3.2
Focal Length: 63mm
ISO Speed: 400
I thought I would also include the runner-up for today as well:

I had originally planned to take my photo inside today, but I couldn’t find anything interesting enough to shoot, so I saddled up my jacket and went outside. The results:

Day 4, Photo A Day
In Photo A Day, Photography on October 8, 2008 at 5:25 pm
I went out to the front of Duvall again to take some more nature photographs. By the time I had been taking photos for 5 minutes, the light had almost all gone. But that didn’t stop me from getting some nice pictures! Here is my pick for the day.

Attis
I adjusted the levels, exposure, contrast, temperature, and tint.
Some exposure information:
Shutter: 1/80
Aperture: 3.2

I was too busy the most of the day to get out and take a photo when there was decent light, so I decided to make an indoor photo work. My camera isn’t great for indoors, but I think it turned out quite nicely.

Icarus
The adjustments I made were levels, exposure, saturation, temperature, and tint.
Some exposure information:
Shutter: 1/8
Aperture: 3.5
Focal Length: 38.6 mm
ISO Speed: 200
