John Crowe Posted March 27, 2004 Share Posted March 27, 2004 Having decided not to take the photograph, I swung my arm down and....snap! Thankfully I had already set the aperture, shutter speed and focus. Probably could not do it again quite so nicely if I tried. So I haven't.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian1664876441 Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 I have posted this before, so I am "hosting" it here, along with its story. <p> On the last day of winter, I came across some cut Roses washed up on the beach at Leesylvania State Park. I am sure they were thrown out onto the Potomac to remember a drowning victim last Summer. Not what I was expecting on the shoreline that day. <p> I had my 50-year old Nikon S2 with me, and was testing it out. I took several shots of the Roses in the sand. It was very cold, and the slow-speed mechanism of the shutter failed. The shutter did not fire until I let up on the release. The result was this image; it was so faint that it could not be printed and looked clear on the negative. I scanned in the whole strip using 48-bit mode, and can onyl guess that the scanner wnt to "full-gain" to get an image. I de-saturated it in Photoshop to get rid of the color bias of the negative. I could not reproduce the effect if I tried. <p> <img src="http://mywebpages.comcast.net/brianvsweeney/flower_135_2.jpg"><p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
