Photo Fun

The new Canon S5 IS has proved to be the right choice so far. I haven’t been presented with a lot of chances to take interesting or breathtaking photos since my arrival, yet I have done some testing and fooling around. Here are a couple of samples.

Of course the easiest subject around is Hermione, our cat. She gracefully poses for the camera, well, she couldn’t care less about me taking pictures granted she can sleep her 22 hours / day:

This photo was taken with the colour accent feature included in the camera’s programs. You pick a color, and a threshold level and it preserves that range, while leaving everything else in grayscale.

Then of course an old love of mine. Night pictures. In this case taken from my apartment’s balcony.

Wide shoot on Vicente Lopez’s Skyline

Here’s another sample, 4:3 aspect ratio, 24x zoom in:

Finally, a long exposure take on an airplane passing over my house. 15 second long shutter speed yielded this as a result:

Hopefully I’ll get some more chances to take some more pictures soon. If I go to Bariloche in the next month or so (as planned) that should provide an excellent opportunity to put some of nature’s beauty into film (well, digital).
