Oz has a great but very simply philosophy - that everybody had a heart, that everybody had a brain, that everybody had courage. These were the gifts that were given to people on this earth, and if you used them properly, you reached the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. And that pot of gold was a home. And a home isn't just a house or an abode..., Its people. People who love you and that you love. That's home. - Ray Bolger aka the Scarecrow
I replied on my own blog about the camera settings, but I don't know if you clicked the box to have follow-up comments sent to your e-mail. So I'll post them here too. Thanks for your interest. -Jennifer
Backgrounds: I just bought some black fabric. I like the velvet piece better. It's best if you can put your subject a few feet in front of the fabric, but my baby has to lie on it. The blue is an old queen sized sheet. The ones with the little girl we put pink tulle in front of the black. That softened everything up.
Properties: I shot everything in manual mode (since that is what I'm trying to practice). I think I had my ISO up to 800 maybe even 1600 at times. I needed more light even in front of the window. The aperture was between 2.8 and 3.5 which makes it tricky to get a good focus with moving kids. Then the shutter speed was as high as I could go to get a good exposure. I used the community version of noiseware (it's a free download) to get rid of a bunch of the blotchiness that came with such a high ISO.

That's way too funny. And very sad, too.

So sad that the Americans can't even write English properly.

What does "offical" mean?
