And speaking of photography: Chapter 2 in the story of my camera exploration, this time playing for the first time with night photography (in the park next to our apartment). I picked up a light-weight tripod when I got the camera, but hadn't yet played with it much. Nothing particularly inspired came of the outing, although I did especially like how the flag turned out.
I was surprised at how easy it was to recover the true colors out of the pictures, despite the low light. After consider, though, I find I do prefer the mood of the pictures as they came off the camera (except for the flag, where the originally simply looked muddy).
I may play with altering the color balance only in the sky, as the red of the sky is very striking, especially in the first scene, but is almost entirely lost in the un-retouched version.
