Oddly enough, the 53rd one this time. To make it more odd, I'm starting the the thread an hour or so early, as events have conspired to make that necessary. I suspect I won't be the only person posting something from the recent festivities. In our case, it was our first attempt at a flaming Christmas pudding, and my first attempt at photographing one. I was glad to comfortably jump that FX sensor up to ISO 2500 - that and a fast lens got me just enough shutter speed to do the job hand-held between after dinner sips, and catch the blue flame of the brandy. I hope everyone has a had a pleasant end of the season, and will be celebrating a fun and safe New Year's Eve.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_shumpert2 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 <p>Nice shot Matt. The last few days the weather has been raining. My wife had thrown out a poinsettia that was dying, but the raindrops made for an nice shot. I used my Nikon Df with a quantaray(sigma) 60mm/2.8 af lens. I shot it at iso100 as a test shot for manually setting flash power. I have to finish some ektar 100 in my F3, so I wanted to get the exposure correct. I used the Df with my SB-800 and an off camera cord connected to an umbrella flash adapter. I hand held the umbrella but the camera was on a tripod. </p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsfbr Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 <p>I haven't processed any holiday shots, but did make a trip recently to one of my favorite discoveries of 2014, the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore, MD. My nearly five year olds love it more than I can convey in writing. I love it because it is filled with amazing behemoths of iron and steel to shoot. If you are within an hour or so of Baltimore and have kids, the family membership is worth every penny.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oliver_flint Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 <p>Using the new Nikkor AF-S 20 mm f1.8 over the holidays I found it to be excellent for close-up portraits as well as wide angle shots with good sharpness.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
