I've been experimenting using the "Shutter Priority" setting on my camera. I guess it's baby steps towards full manual. Basically, I choose the exposure time and then the camera picks the ideal aperture to match my shutter speed. Here are some details on the photo:<br />Shutter Time: 8.000s<br />Aperture: f/25.0<br />Focal Length: 26.00 mm<br />ISO: 800<br /><br />The 8 seconds made the headlights of the cars driving by come out quite nicely.<br />More pictures of the bridge can be found <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/kurt.pictures/BenFranklinBridge">here</a>.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_6-yaeDjmp_s/Sbajzo7tzgI/AAAAAAAADvA/7e5yGHHfp-4/s800/DSC_3764.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 800px; height: 536px;" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_6-yaeDjmp_s/Sbajzo7tzgI/AAAAAAAADvA/7e5yGHHfp-4/s800/DSC_3764.JPG" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3762855701762452047-5878447715541363645?l=kurtsphotographyblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kurt Mitmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09783427346533326384noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762855701762452047.post-73698835704668185882009-03-07T17:49:00.001-08:002009-03-07T17:53:44.360-08:00Not exactly high quality photography, but I decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather today in Philadelphia and walk around Pennypack Pack. I snapped a few shots with my iPhone. Not too bad for a cell phone camera.

It was small and portable and took decent shots for websites or 3x5's. Here's an example from a trip to the island of Ios in Greece.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6-yaeDjmp_s/Sa7gSICz4EI/AAAAAAAADlM/Y8b97nuQ0DQ/s1600-h/ios.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6-yaeDjmp_s/Sa7gSICz4EI/AAAAAAAADlM/Y8b97nuQ0DQ/s400/ios.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5309427612717932610" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3762855701762452047-3444860251507788025?l=kurtsphotographyblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kurt Mitmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09783427346533326384noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3762855701762452047.post-7037325888564602912009-03-01T21:36:00.000-08:002009-03-01T21:48:19.897-08:00<div>Hi, I've created this site to showcase some of my pictures and document my explorations in Photography using my Nikon D40X</div><div>Enjoy!</div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_6-yaeDjmp_s/SGB8rN5SAsI/AAAAAAAAB3E/8sJHyY6yrXI/s800/DSC_1029.JPG"><img style="float:center; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 660px; height: 442px;" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_6-yaeDjmp_s/SGB8rN5SAsI/AAAAAAAAB3E/8sJHyY6yrXI/s800/DSC_1029.JPG" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><div>A flower from the Botanical Gardens in Belfast</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3762855701762452047-703732588856460291?l=kurtsphotographyblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Kurt Mitmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09783427346533326384noreply@blogger.com0
