Commission
So this weekend I got my first commission.
My mother-in-law is moving away from her home, and asked me to take some black and white shots of a bridge near her home, for printing at 8x10 and framing. We were visiting from about 11 - 5 on a sunny day, which made for some tough light. Also (and this happens to me way too much) I had been experimenting the day before with some low light photographs, and the ISO had been goosed to 1600 -- guess who forgot to dial it back down for the commission. Anyway, here are three of the better ones. I decided to sort of go with the ISO noise, and pretend it was film grain.    EL

I love love love the second one! In fact, I think it would also probably look quite good in color with a nice saturated blue sky. Fantastic!

What grain? No, really, these pics are great!
 PS: maybe tie a ribbon around your camera every time you put it to sleep for the night so you remember to change the ISO

I really like the clouds on the second shot.

I wish there were some way of establish a bunch of pre-sets I could make my D40 revert to with single touch of a button.
(I had probably better go check my manual to see if there is such a beast, before somebody here points out that such a thing exists...). EL
