There is Beauty All Around

The Snake River winds through downtown Idaho Falls with the LDS temple seen in the distance.

Chromodynamics

The term "Chromodynamics" is borrowed from Quantum Mechanics which calls the Strong Force "Quantum Chromodynamics." I think a far better use of the term would be to describe a wonderful sunrise rather than a bunch of Quarks!

Natural Evolution - Add Some Movement To Your Images

Natural Evolution by James Neeley

People mill about the atrium of the beautiful London Museum of Natural History.

The use of movement in a photograph can interest and dynamics. Whether it's the movement of the wind, a moving vehicle, or moving people, try slowing down you shutter to capture the feeling of time passing. In this case I was in aperture priority mode so I raised the aperture to f22 and lowered the ISO to 100 to achieve a shutter speed of 2.5 sec without the use of a neutral density filter.

Camera Sony Alpha NEX-7
Exposure 2.5
Aperture f/22.0
Focal Length 18 mm
ISO Speed 100
Exposure Bias 0 EV

The wind was always blowing in Aruba so the movement is an attempt to reflect this...

A little movement is always interesting and adds a dynamic feel as you try to portray a subject...

Rainy Days and Mondays

We didn't have much rain on our visit to London but I was grateful for the bit we did have so I could get a few abstract "rain on the window" shots. ;-)
