I’m a bit back logged on photo excursion postings. This one was at a local parked called Aldeen that has a few interesting water retention structures as well as some nice green space. I was using the Pentax K-5 and DA* 55mm f1.4 lens. It was around sunset, so eventually auto-focus became a big challenge. In addition to that, I was using a friend’s Yongnuo flash units and RF wireless flash triggers. Here are a few images from the outing:  I’ve been making Youtube videos as well that are a bit more interesting than a few photos and some text on the site. Below is the video for this excursion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLJ_AteA3RQ

In my previous post I showed a few photos I had taken downtown after a photographer meetup. They were a few quick snapshots. A few days after that I went back downtown with a friend in the late night for a walk around the most interesting areas.  A few highlight images:  I was using the Pentax K-5 and DA 14mm f2.8 lens handheld. Setting wise I was in program or aperture priority most of the time around maximum aperture of f2.8 with a negative exposure compensation of around 0.3 to -1.7.
