Raid: I found 2.8 to be the best tradeoff between shallow DoF and emo-friendly razor sharpness.

Here's one of my low-light examples. It was shot in a dark forest with no flash at f/3.2, 1/100s at ISO 800.

I could have dumped the aperture down to 1.8 and come to ISO 400, but NoiseNinja wouldn't have got such a workout then!

Scratch that, I didn't do any noise reduction at all. Kinda shows Very Happy

She has a novel way of pleasuring herself...

Is she a man only at weekends then? Confused

I've just found out that I have a perfectly functional set of Canon AF extension tubes that belonged to my granddad; I'd tried them before, but didn't realise just how much they limited the focusing range (I thought them broken, or unsuitable for a digital SLR when I couldn't focus on anything). Macro photography, here I come!

What's it going to be: fruit, flowers or water droplets?

Whatever's in arms reach at the moment; I'm guessing coins and... scissors.

Went walking on Dartmoor today and it was fantastic - thick mist and fog, very damp and wet. There's been a lot of rain recently, meaning the dam sluices were fully open and all the streams and leats were in flood, making for some fantastic watery drama. Naturally, I didn't take my camera.
Anyway, I'm hoping the weather is similiarly miserable tommorow (yes, I'm strange) so I can return and take photographs because the fog truly was incredible.

Anyway, how can I protect my camera against the moisture? I've bought some large freezer bags but I can't work out the best way to seal it in. Do I just put it inside, have the very tip of the lens poking out the opening, and tape the bag to the lens? Screw a filter over the top? Cut a hole and screw the filter over the top of that and then tape the opening shut?

Will a single freezer bag be sufficient to waterproof it? I mean obviously if it gets too crazily wet I'll shove it inside my coat (Gore-tex) and probably keep it there between shooting anyawy. BUT STILL.

Is this a bad idea? I don't see how else I can get pictures of the mist without, you know. Being there.
